Good:
space politics!
a lot of interesting concepts scientifically accepted tarot, work revolutionized by cybernetics, ...
has some interesting romantic elements
Bad:
at times fees self indulgent
I really hate the trope of a driven yet abusive leader that inspires devotion in their followers despite bullying them
* flat & boring antagonist/supporting characters
