Escape Velocity by Anah Crow, Dianne Fox
4.0
3.5 stars
I really liked the narration. There was emotion and distinction behind the different characters and I felt immersed in the story
The story itself was ok. It dragged a bit though I did tear up at spots. I liked the characters and their interactions. I didn’t quite get why a futuristic society was based off of Roman culture and fundamental Christian like religion. I also didn’t understand why Roman culture meant polyamorous. There wasn’t enough description of why or how the societies worked compared to the length of the novel.
A final note: I really appreciated the description of Sender’s sister. She seemed very age appropriate.
