I conclude this reading impressed and bewitched by the pen of Samantha Bailly, feeling small beside. We have a system of corporations and complex caste, a very present history, and each chapter beginning, there was a small paragraph, "extracts" of works of famous characters from the world and from different corporations Ollien for us prodding in our understanding. Sometimes the explanation is much further in the novel, sometimes even expected ... maybe in the second volume due out next year? That, by the way, I look forward to reading! The States, chuchoteuses / howler, names "the dawn of warriors", "nocturnal tears," "merchants of stars", "Volplume" ... as names that leave dreamers ...

On the site, one is entitled to a quiz ... and I ... oh, surprise, Aileen! I thought Noony! -D
