I thought the character of Katrina was well done. The other main characters felt a bit two dimensional, and their motives and occasions on which they cared vs. lack of care was puzzling at best.

This is a reflection on purpose in life almost as much as it is a novel. If you need all your questions answered, I would not recommend this book, but if you want a calm, patient exploration of humanity and its relationship to community, society, and civilization, this is a very good choice.

This was a really good book if you like cosmic horror and adjacent tropes. The alien mind is nicely alien, and it gave a lot to ponder about the nature of consciousness, identity and communication.
