This book has everything I love.
The most thrilling ride ever.
A fascinating space opera debut novel, Arkady Martine\'s A Memory Called Empire is an interstellar mystery adventure.
Now, Mahit must discover who is behind the murder, rescue herself, and save her Station from Teixcalaan\'s unceasing expansion--all while navigating an alien culture that is all too seductive, engaging in intrigues of her own, and hiding a deadly technological secret--one that might spell the end of her Station and her way of life--or rescue it from annihilation.
But no one will admit that his death wasn\'t an accident--or that Mahit might be next to die, during a time of political instability in the highest echelons of the imperial court.
All around brilliant space opera, I absolutely love it.--Ann Leckie, author of Ancillary Justice Ambassador Mahit Dzmare arrives in the center of the multi-system Teixcalaanli Empire only to discover that her predecessor, the previous ambassador from their small but fiercely independent mining Station, has died.
