Centique
Translation State | Ann Leckie

Pickpick

Just serving you up more beach photos - i never get bored taking photos of this stuff!
I loved the Raddch series by Ann Leckie and now she sets us back in this universe with 3 new characters & we learn more about the Presger & other (human & non-human) civilisations that are not Raadchai. It feels a little Becky Chamber-ish in a “lets understand our differences” way - which i love. Its fascinating to get more insight into this complex universe ⬇️

Centique There are times when i lose track of minor characters (so many names of diplomats and who they represent!) but i just let that go and enjoy the ride. Just huge fun and i wolfed this down 😍 5d

Ruthiella Awesome ! I really need to finish the Radch trilogy but at this point feel I should re-read Ancillary Justice and Ancillary Sword first…it‘s been so long. 5d

I only had one 5🌟 pick for November, but it was one of the best fiction book I read this year. Leckie never let's me down, she's an auto-pick author for me.

I really liked her trilogy, the Imperial Radch novels. I thought they were great science fiction. This one…not so much. Three characters of indeterminate species come together to keep a treaty with some really bad guys in place and save the world. I couldn‘t even make sense of the story half the time. Lots of space adventure though!

My favorite book in June was Translation State. It was a most welcome return to the world of the Imperial Radch. Leckie is a brilliant writer, her world building is phenomenal and her stories are always compelling. This one was no exception and I look forward to her next book.

114/150 When I read the Ancillary trilogy, I was blown away and thought it couldn't be topped. This doesn't top it, but it comes damn near close. Leckie's alien civilizations are amazing, so detailed and constructed, so believable. She makes you care about all the characters, whether human, presgar translator, AI or other alien species. A huge shout out needs to go to Adjoa Andoh, the narrator. She gave every character a distinct voice ⬇️⬇️

RamsFan1963 and characterization so you always knew who was speaking in the large and diverse cast of characters. I like the book is left open ended, I'd like to see more of Qven, Reet and Enae in future Radch novels 5 🌟 read. Highly Recommended. 5mo

1. I read quite a few really good books this month, but I think Translation State by Ann Leckie was the best overall.

2. I plan to hand out candy if any trick-or-treaters make it out in the cold to our house on the end of our dead-end street!

Enae is an inconvenient relative sent off on an impossible mission. Reet is an orphan who never felt he belonged, despite his loving adopted family. Qven doesn't know what is true or who to trust. Set in the world of the Radch, this brilliant novel explores identity, connection and self-determination in all the ways we've come to expect from Ann Leckie. I didn't want to put it down.

"The last stragglers in the funeral procession were barely out the ghost door before the mason bots unfolded their long legs and reached for the pile of stones they'd removed from the wall so painstakingly the day before."

Really excited about this one! Bring on the weekend.
