Ok so a few years ago a friend of mine, H, recommended and lent me Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secretes of the Universe.
And I highly, highly recommend that book. I inhaled it the first time I read it and it's one of those books I don't reread very often because it's just beautiful and fragile and not a book I want to ruin by rereading too much.
Well, the sequel just came out (after a long, long wait) and I tried to be slow in reading it but I basically inhaled the whole book over the weekend. (THANKS, H, FOR SENDING ME A COPY WHEN I SAID I WAS TOO ANXIOUS TO BUY IT RIGHT NOW)
( Here there be incoherent spoilers and probably some very unfair criticism that I just need to get off my chest. )
To be clear, the book is amazing and highly, highly recommended. This is a duology that is likely to become a complicated classic and I think it deserves it.
( The fandom angle. )
