Short review: After a long hospital stay, Rye is released, her body covered in lesions, suffering a fever that causes synesthesic hallucinations, with no memory of the past six years. With the help of someone she used to know, she begins to regain her memories—only to discover that she was once tied up in an interstellar war that crosses parallel universes and the boundaries of human consciousness. A balance of wild, vivid, dream-like storytelling and a detailed, intelligent sci-fi plot, this is a complex book which more than rewards the reader for the effort of reading it. It is vivid, violent, meaningful, and simply wonderful. Very highly recommended.
