I've had this on my to read list for years, and I'm glad I finally got around to reading it. While I feel for Caleb, this was a very solid read from the POV of Black people in the era of Jim Crow, with a Lovecraftian spin. A far more enjoyable read than some other period pieces.
I'm surprised how much I enjoyed this, despite Ax being my least favorite character. I didn't love the blatant sexism from him and the male Andalites, but there were some fun moments in this book.
And some interesting almost-war-crimes.
It had some good scenes, but for the most part was kind of a drag. I almost stopped reading halfway through.
Long-winded, but we'll worth the read for the reveal! Gotta admit my guess to the culprit was wrong, but it was fun to be proven so.
