I really enjoyed all three books. They managed to do the galactic empire thing without getting overly bogged down in politics, and character development was interesting. I thought Leckie did a good job of conveying an extended AI in multiple bodies, and a solitary form (avoiding spoilers).
I read these not long after reading the first five Murderbot Diaries books, and I wonder if the Radch books might have been an influence on Wells. Some of the themes felt a little similar, while the stories were quite different.
Anyone read them? Liked it disliked, and why?
The conflict in Mercy wasn’t as anxious for me, but I did like it. And, unsurprisingly, it felt like more of an ending than the others (the three books really are like one continuous story in a lot of ways - more so than other series I’ve read).
