This is not my usually enjoyed style of writing - but there were certainly many deeply interesting themes developed and it is very much worth reading. I think I may enjoy the book more upon future re-reads so as to understand it more fully.

You can call me Xenia (yea like the Linux mascot - unfortunately I'm not the most creative) or Raven. As the user name suggests I am quite a strange lil fox-thing. I mostly read lit-fic, political/economic theory and Maths or CompSci stuff and the occassional urban fantasy, though really anything may pop up here!
If I say something silly or annoying or you otherwise want to get in touch you can find me at: voidadjacent@proton.me Though I may be a bit slow to respond!

Xenia/Raven reviewed Vector by Robyn Arianrhod
Very wothwile reading!
5 stars
Arianrhod balances effortlessly the line of explanation. This book is about history and creativity and while a good deal of concepts are needed for the understanding of how one thing leads to another - each is brushed against with enough detail to see the path of development but not so much that the experience becomes tedious or alienating; it may even pique enough curiosity to dive into new fields!
