A harrowing story that takes place upon a gigantic space ship structured vertically like the antebellum south. It includes themes of power, resistance, community, and order. 

Pros: neurodivergent characters, gender queer and intersex characters are central. 

Cons: there are many aspects to the plot I just didn’t understand, for example some key events aren’t returned to, or seem to have little consequence. I can’t visualise much of the ships layout or description so a map would have helped. The ending didn’t make sense to me.
