I thought I would feel more prepared to discuss this series after finishing the third of four books.
lol whoops.
I look forward to the fourth book and finding out what Butler is doing...or watching the whole thing tie together with awe but without enlightenment.

I can’t say I’m all that reassured that Butler won’t really envision a future where the US does not break down into a kind of rugged individualist anarchy. We haven’t yet, but still.
