“So, don’t waste time, not your time, Mycroft Canner, don’t you dare. Your sentence is to work. So, work.”

And I've found the most unlikely candidate for best fictional mentors in Vivien. Talk about a dark horse.

“The depths and death, and then perhaps the stars.”

What a way to Title drop!

Bravo Ada Palmer. You did Achilles's wrath justice. Did the Iliad justice wow. Maybe my favourite chapter of the whole series so far

Odysseus is who now? Damn everything I've been reading in this series has been a fucking lie!

Yeah no switching to Iliad. This first 20% has been an utterly drag unfortunately 😕

Honestly ain't vibing with this current narrator so far but lets see how it goes faster I've read substantially more.

Myself and a handful of friends on here have been buddyreading this in the past month so seeing it out is even more special than it has been with finishing most series I've read before. A special experience worthy of the special sci-fi series it is.
