Reviews
"Leckie's humane, emotionally intelligent, and deeply perceptive writing makes this tautly plotted adventure feel fundamentally true while also offering longtime fans a much anticipated glimpse into the Radch's most mysterious species. Readers will be thrilled."--Publishers Weekly (Starred Review)
"Another of Leckie's beautiful mergings of the political, philosophical, and personal."--Kirkus (Starred Review)
"Any SF reader who loves political skullduggery told through fascinating and empathetic characters will be captivated by Leckie's latest foray into the Imperial Radch in all its complexity and corruption. Highly recommended."--Library Journal (Starred Review)
"Leckie's ability to seamlessly weave in alternate conceptions of gender, identity, and alien experience remains as strong as ever, as does the propulsive and exciting tenor of her prose. An excellent addition to Leckie's already well-realized and often strange and exciting universe, this new novel is accessible, and essential, to new readers and old fans alike."--Booklist (Starred Review)
"I don't want to spoil anything, so will simply say that the plot always goes where it should but not always where you'd expect. Along the way, Leckie asks big questions about trauma, power, and secrets. She answers them, too....I'll put my marker down now that this book will be on most of the award slates at the end of the year. It'll be well-earned.Translation State shows off Leckie's skills masterfully."--Locus
"There are few who write science fiction like Ann Leckie can. There are few who ever could."--John Scalzi
