REQUIRED READING. Sci-fi fantasy masterpiece with creative and amazingly executed worldbuilding. The story is about racism and climate change. The three different plotlines with different POVs are all equally compelling and all of the characters are interesting and fun to read about, whether they are likeable people or not. The writing style is beautiful and unique and that alone makes it worth reading. Can't wait to finish the trilogy.
