Joan D. Vinge: The Snow Queen (2001, Warner Books) 4 stars

Wonderful Worldbuilding and Complex Characters

4 stars

I enjoyed the worldbuilding Vinge did to create Tiamat and her cast of characters surprised me with their complexity. Gender and ecology hold large places in this novel and it is well served by their inclusion. Sometimes the pacing could be snappier, but I enjoyed the experience.
