The Trials of Koli

Man I'm just zipping through this trilogy...now I have to wait until March to read the next one!
I like getting to hear Spinner's perspective in this one - it's helping me to understand Koli a bit better too. He truly is an oblivious do-gooder. I'm glad Spinner's getting fleshed out more too, in the last book she did just seem like a personality-less prize that Koli and his friend were sort of competing over.
I'm also interested in the idea of being crossed - trans in our terminology. It seems like humans gon human, because there are some groups/villages who will say you're not normal and will try to convert you back to being “normal”, and some who are cool with it and feel like it's just another way that people can be.
