Overall: A novella in the finest tradition of Science Fiction. If [a:Anne McCaffrey 26 Anne McCaffrey https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1599324585p2/26.jpg] and [a:Isaac Asimov 16667 Isaac Asimov https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1341965730p2/16667.jpg] had gotten together, they would have written something very much like this.On 1st Reading: I love the work of Janet Edwards. This did not disappoint.I'd been saving this one as a treat for myself - well after a hard week I picked it up and was treated to all the best of Science Fiction in one slim package.If you like SF, you can't go wrong with Janet Edwards.On 2nd Reading: I have to say that the first time I read this I was swept up by the adventure of the story and hit with a hefty dose of good old-fashioned sense of wonder. On my second reading I was able to pay a little more attention to the details and my respect for the author has grown even more. While there is a great action story going on, a major thread through this story centres on cultural traditions and misunderstandings - something I can totally empathise with after having mortally offended certain people without having the faintest idea I was doing so. This side of things is very well presented and I look forward to find out more about the complex societies in this setting.On 3rd Reading: I reread this in preparation for the sequel story which is due to be released on Christmas Day 2020. Still great. If this story can withstand three readings I think it's pretty well certain that I like it! [a:Janet Edwards 5415711 Janet Edwards https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1657263898p2/5415711.jpg] is definitely my favorite author writing today!On 4th Reading: The sequel short story didn't come out on Christmas Day 2020, instead it morphed into two novels, the first of which - [b:Hestia 2781 58435981 Hestia 2781 (Drago Tell Dramis #1) Janet Edwards https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1624976040l/58435981.SY75.jpg 91705539], came out in July 2021, hence this reread. After reading it four times I can confidently say that this is a darn good story and I am buzzing as I jump straight into the long awaited sequel.
