Absolutely delightful comfort read.
Not as heavy or idea-packed as AUTONOMOUS but I am absolutely ready for an anthology of short stories set in this same world.
Fun and interesting inversion of a bunch of "I am creating life" tropes going all the way back to Mary Shelley

Heard a short bit about this on Future Tense podcast
This is a SF novel embedded within a roman à clef about a SF novelist who resembles at some distance the author herself
But not exactly, all the way through. It's a rich text, and I'm only 10% through

Ah, dang I love these stories.
I get a kick out of the extended Radch stories with their heavily cliquey diplomatic politics
But I Just Can't Get Enough
of the Raven Tower universe, with its very specific rules about how gods work and live with humans. Some parts of the Raven Tower stories even feel a little bit like the old Asimov (I, Robot) or Conan Doyle (Sherlock Holmes) stories, because they're an exploration of possible conduct under certain very confined rules of politics and promises.
Do Not Make Promises To Gods is clearly the best operating procedure, but gah it seems so interesting.
Want to hear more about the Auditors of Narendra, though.

slow and meditative and almost entirely free of plot, even as Dex and Mosscap find their way through being famous in this Always Coming Home world
Nothing too surprising to me here but lots of good stories about how weird our minds are , especially in groups
Took me a long time to get through this, but it's because the simultaneous stories of... probably fifteen different main characters, three of which are robots and two of which are dogs
At least one is a dimension-hopping alien and a veteran at the same time. It's a chewy, rich cast and there are no truly bad guys in it (well, maybe one).
A solarpunk triumph
