Rien ne peut arrêter l'expansion radchaaï. Chaque annexion fournit des armées supplémentaires, les ancillaires, des captifs à la conscience détruite changés en troupes de choc, des marionnettes animées par l'intelligence artificielle des vaisseaux de guerre de l'empire. L'un de ces vaisseaux, le Justice de Toren, a été détruit, victime d'un complot au plus haut niveau du pouvoir. Mais son IA est parvenue à s'échapper et à s'incarner dans le seul ancillaire rescapé du massacre. Dix-neuf ans plus tard, sa vengeance est sur le point de s'accomplir...

Really enjoyed this one

This one took a bit of warming up to, the perspective of the main character/narrator was a bit hard to follow at first, but once I saw what was going on it became easier. Definitely a page turner. I enjoyed the novel perspective, and found myself quite attached to the characters by the end. A friend lent my all 3 of the books in the series, and I can't wait to dig into the next one.

Imaginative Space Opera

Really enjoyed this book. In some ways it's a classic space opera but there's enough twists on the formula that it feels super fresh. Fascinating explorations of identity, language, and class. The writing was fun and engaging, I ate this book up.

Cool space opera

This is a fun space opera that has all the fun space opera things: giant interstellar empires; worldbuilding on various interstellar cultures, and how they interact with each other, and how they do gender; exploration of how cognition and identity works in entities that are not (or not entirely) human; grand plots and conspiracies.

The overall plot is perhaps a bit simple, and some of the characters lean perhaps too much into one-dimensional archetypes, but it does not matter that much against the lively worldbuilding, and how it ties into the whole story.
