by Robert Jackson Bennett
This is the final book in the Founders Trilogy and it is a tour de force. The story picks up eight years after Shorefall, where Sancia, Berenice, Clef, and their compatriots have created a beautiful, telepathically collectivist society that is locked in an unwinnable war against a scrived entity that has enslaved the minds and bodies of most of humanity in its quest to unravel reality itself. So the stakes couldn't be higher, and the odds couldn't be longer. The plot moves through a series of daring missions while exploring the world's present and the past that brought it to this point. It's exciting and hair-raising and just plain amazing.
I love what Bennett says about what can break and what can fix the world. I like his take on who technology fits into that. I absolutely love what he's saying about what's important and most valuable. This was so, so good.
