🧵 @ArkadyMartine ’s Teixcalaan books are Very Serious Hard Scifi but also smart about colonialism, gender, and a host of other topics, and in a style that really works for me.
(I say “but” here because, well, lots of Very Serious Scifi traditionally has been completely awful on all of those fronts. But if you’ve read this far in the thread you probably knew that already.)
I also thoroughly enjoyed her “Rose/House”.
