I was very much into the exploration of colonialism, Moroccan-inspired worldbuilding and character-driven sci-fi plot that was only perfunctorily sci-fi. I was not all into the romance (even though Idris’ arc is interesting). If it had focused solely on Amani and Maram’s relationship, I would probably had enjoyed it much more. Their scenes were my favourites.
