This was a short addition to Binti and Binti: Home that I previously read but only for this one when I pick up the trilogy anthology published together. I liked how she developed the friends on Oomza Uni more and more about the beliefs of Binti. I was a little surprised this just wasn’t part of Binti or an afterward. Still enamored by the world and technology and descriptions completely spell binding.
