Great speculative sci-fi.
The plot elements of this book allow the author to play with the concept of time in a very fun way, and it was really interesting to watch the development of the characters in the two main plot lines develop over thousands of years.
I don't want to spoil too much, there are a lot of fun surprises tucked into this one that I think are better enjoyed organically, but this book had me reflecting on some very interesting sci-fi questions that I have never thought about before throughout.
