This book had many parts where I believed the story would take off but every time it just ended and was never expanded upon. It was hard to follow at times and had quite a few moments when I said "What?" out loud while listening to it. It was a quick read and free on audible.

5 stars to Auli'I Cravalho for narration!

I want so much more of this story. I want back story, I want adventures, I want more characters... I'm so invested in this world.

A fun quick listen, very descriptive and not much plot or character driven.

I enjoy Ken Liu's writing but this was just an okay short story. The plot is interesting and Franny is a great character but I was left feeling unfinished and wanting more.

I can listen to the narrator all day. Her voice is so calming.
