Tilde Lowengrimm reviewed Ghost spin by Chris Moriarty
Enjoyable, exciting, incomprehensible, and space pirates!
Unquestionably the most exciting and fun of the Spin novels, and also the least straightforward. I didn't understand this book the first time I read it, I didn't understand it on subsequent re-reads, and I don't understand it now. If you do, please let me know?
It's about… possibility? Chaos theory & fragmentation? unity & disunity of self & identity? who you are always rests on a knife's edge? love as both you and the person you love change? colonialism, industrial extraction, & empire? and also AI-assisted space pirates in a weird FTL rift-space. It's definitely also about scifi space pirates.
I feel like Moriarty is trying to say a lot of things in this book, and I wish I knew what they were? I feel like she's very shy about saying it, and sees the need to keep our attention with all the swashbuckling space piracy?
Excellent book, love …

Excellent book, love reading it every time. Maybe one day I'll figure it out. Not today though.
