Cached US Kindle giveaway: 10 copies of @annleckie.com's *excellent* THE RAVEN TOWER, which I have, have read, have given away before, and will give away before. I love this book more than the Imperial Radch books; it just does what it does perfectly. #KindleBookGiveaway

Cached US Kindle giveaway: 10 copies of @annleckie.com's THE RAVEN TOWER, which I *love*, and have given out multiple times this month. It's still on sale for $2, btw. Because of one of those giveaways, I discovered *I'd missed the last page of the book*! #KindleBookGiveaway
The fun thing about #TheRavenTower by #AnnLeckie is that the _terror_ of the Strength and Patience of the Hills has very little to do with strength-- even though that turns out to be tremendous-- and everything to do with patience.
It's not going to throw its weight around (save That Incident). It's just going to ponder you very deeply and set a plan in motion where your death comes inevitably fifty years later; and only then do you learn it even, properly speaking, exists.
I very much like the narrator and the 1st person/2nd person narration happening.
Allusions to the character Eolo being transgender have me excited. Bindings but male pronouns? Yes please! (Did Eolo run away as a girl and join the army as a boy? Is that why he was nervous when he met Dera?)
Please let him hook up with Tikaz.
Plot feels like it's deliberately taking it's time. And I appreciate that this is a book you should probably devote a significant portion of time to get anywhere. My whole evening tonight will get me about a quarter to a third of the way through.
What does everyone else think so far?
