@freakazoid What do you think so far?

@steampunkLemur I just finished chapter 8. The depth is pretty astonishing; not what I'm used to in science fiction, though Le Guin isn't exactly known for fitting neatly into a genre. Some things that struck me as odd early on turned out to be important later, which makes me happy, though after all the book's subtitle is "an ambiguous utopia". Le Guin certainly doesn't talk down to her readers!
