 5t4n5 | Sep 13, 2023 |  Marvellous read. This is as good as any other sci fi that I've read. Highly, highly recommended. (  ) ropable | Aug 20, 2023 | Given that many of my closest friendships were forged in the fires of shared literary interests, actually, I have very little overlap in tastes with my real life friends. So despite the fact that my best friend and I both obsessively read science fiction and fantasy, her recommending this to me was not particularly encouraging. She convinced me to read it by pitching the agender society and neurodiversity of the main character, but reading it I found the things that I would have used to pitch it to her in abundance: a deeply created society, such that every utterance of a character was pregnant with meaning, songs and poems that had built up layers of nuance over generations and elaborate rituals. Unlike the sorts of books she typically reads, most of this was implied so that Leckie developed the feel of an intricate created society without the burden of pages and pages of exposition. So I, who hate slow books actually quite enjoyed it. I liked the exploration of how do very diverse societies clock gender, what does it mean to be an entity (is continuity of consciousness real?) and how do societies change over time ( ) settingshadow | Aug 19, 2023 | The idea of a split awareness, of “self” being distributed among multiple bodies drew me in, but I think I enjoyed the concept more than the story itself. I found the present-day story in the first half slow going. I don’t know how necessary the dual timeline was. The Radch (Radchaai?) culture was interesting, with its rituals, religion, tea and inter-house politics. That said, many of the cultural details seemed there more as unrelated background, and the story could have played out in a similar way in a very different setting. The characters and there decisions didn’t always make sense to me, which maybe kept me from being fully engaged. Overall, I’m glad I read this, but I’m not in a rush to pick up the sequel. MHThaung | Aug 17, 2023 | Damn, I love a good space opera, and Ancillary Justice hit almost all my niche loves in the genre. The play on gender-neutral language/culture was enough to be interesting and thought provoking, without dominating the narrative. The central "mystery" of the story is unraveled in a pretty appropriate timing so you aren't lost but kept waiting to learn more. I'm glad there's more to this series and setting so I can keep going.

Gender roles in Ann Leckie's Imperial Radch

Really well written with a great protagonist, it's a real page turner.
But don't just take my word for it being a great story: Ancillary Justice won the following awards:
The novel was also nominated for the following awards:
It does kind of remind me of Murderbot by Martha Wells, so if you liked those books you'll probably like this, and vice versa.
And now i'm diving straight into Ancillary Sword: #excited
Bye for now. (
