Charlie Jane Anders: Promises Stronger Than Darkness (2023, Tor Teen) 4 stars

Promises Stronger Than Darkness marks the final installment of the international bestselling author Charlie Jane …

“GIVE ME YOUR FUR! WE’LL BE FURLESS TOGETHER!”

4 stars

I expected to be lost—it’s been a while since I read the prior two books—but nope! And we get to spend more time with the Grattna, a species whose bodies, language, and worldview is based on threes, not binaries. Fascinating!

Overall, the series has too many species, cultures, etc. to fully track, but the way they solve problems and work through their shit is how more people should be in the universe.
