  • Plot- or character-driven? Character
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.5

This book has a mix of historical and modern science fiction. The most interesting commonality is Chiang using scientific and mathematic concepts as allegory for humanities flaws. Let it be known that I am biased as Ted Chiang is a favorite author of mine.
