FIRST REVIEW, 2021:

It took me a much longer time to read this than I was expecting. It's one of McKillip's most complex works, as well as one of her most poetic, filled with all kinds of allegories and mysteries. I couldn't always follow the storyline or the action, but I just went with the flow.

SECOND REVIEW, 2024:

Well, I'll be damned. Read it all practically in one sitting this time on a long train trip, but I had zero recollection of this book. It was only when I wanted to log it that I discovered I'd read this before. It's still a very abstract work, especially near the end.
