He wants, desperately, to shout at her, to strike her, to tell her once again that working is the worst way to get any sort of money, but he only draws her close.
Is it worse to bite the hand that feeds you, or kiss the hand that beats you?
The hours crawl by, but at a startlingly fast crawl.
Same choice we all have, my dear. Same as every creature. Domestication, or extermination.

Kid’s just at that stage. They go to sleep tame, wake up feral.

There’s only one good man and he’s my dog.
His eyes are dusty gold, like a beam of light in a grain silo. Aster has never seen a grain silo, but this does not deter her imagination.
@eldang@outside.ofa.dog I have a collection of Smith stories, in german, that I read all of. There was good stuff in it. Seems this is set in the same world. (Are all of his under that pseudonym?) Of course I read Nostril-ia at first. ^^
Will you propose this for #sffBookClub? I'd be in favour.

#SFFBookClub book from a few months ago. I read this quickly and enjoyed it, but it also felt very thin. The overall arc seemed sort of formulaic, and it just never got me caring enough about its world or characters for the ending to make me feel very much.

The Library of Broken Worlds was overall very dense and abstract for my taste. It reminds me a little of The West Passage in that respect, although it has a more serious and scifiy bent.
I feel like it picked up significantly around the halfway point, when the events in the flashbacks became more plot-oriented and the connections between the flashbacks and the god started to be revealed.
Overall, I enjoyed the out-thereness of the setting, but the book was not for me.
We’re just the part of the universe that tells itself stories.
