As someone who always advocates for understanding the fundamentals, this books is awesome and has changed how I write software in general. I am very rarely writing code where I have to think about the operating systems but understanding operating systems internals has surprisingly saved me time lots in the few months since reading this book.
Definitely worth a read if you've wanted to understand how operating systems work but the topic has always seemed to be unapproachable. If you have a basic computing science background this book is pretty approachable!

Almost perfect besides a bit of a rushed ending!

Fanstatic world building in a norse fantasy setting with distinct and interesting characters and concepts. While I had some issues with repetive phrases and descriptions, my biggest issue with this book is how insanely slow the plot was. The first half of the book was a slog, the third quarter was better, and the last quarter was awesome.

A really fun mashup of body horror, sci-fi, abrahamic religious reference, and conspiracy theories. I really loved reading through these stories; especially with how well they tie back in throughout.
If you're not a fan of stories that don't answer every question by the end you probably won't enjoy this much. For me, it was a perfect level of open-ended.
