Ancillary reading progress
Dec. 8th, 2015 03:42 pmI finished Ancillary Justice this morning, and then of course I promptly went and got Ancillary Sword from the library. (It amuses me that there are 40 holds on 15 copies of Justice, but 6 holds on 17 copies of Sword. The first-in-the-series effect is a powerful one.)
I've heard rumblings of people not liking the sequels as much as the first, and I will say Sword so far has 100% less trekking through the snow, which is one of my weak spots. However, so far if anything I'm enjoying it even more than the first one, because Leckie just keeps digging deeper into the ramifications of her worldbuilding.
( spoilers through beginning of Ancillary Sword )
Just a note, please no spoilers for either Sword or Mercy, even "you'll see more of that." I want to be surprised. :)
