I really liked this book, it's well written and and it's a pretty original story. Parts of it were a little confusing, but you can still grasp what's going on. The ending kind of sucked, with no real closure for the 3 characters. (

Brooke excels at depicting unknowable and scarily arbitrary extraterrestrials and a human race crushed by endless cruelty and domination. Recommended.
