Jim's Review
🐛
A protagonist who used to be a spaceship is enough to short-circuit a tiny worm brain. Leckie pulls off something genuinely original here — the gender pronoun thing alone will rewire how you think about language. It swept every major award for a reason. Four worms for the most inventive sci-fi debut in years.
