I read this book for the ATY 2019 Challenge Week 33: a book you have had for a year and not read.
All science-fiction has things that are hard to swallow, I think. That is fine. The same is true of fantasy, but this book had too many things that I had a tough time choking down. In a way, it is a pseudo-religious book with a belief in a Pattern. But there is also a talking star! I did read it to the end because it had a cliffhanger ending going on, but I did not like the ending. It did not really make sense. Perhaps it is just not the kind of book I like to read. Sorry.
