Lords of Uncreation

Enjoyed the ending. Took a long time getting there, maybe too many words, but the final half of this book with the big conclusion to the cosmic menace was great. The first half of this book was like a different novel, more space opera conflicts between empires. And that stuff is good too but there was a lot more of it than I was interested in. But much appreciated the final existential stuff. Tchaikovsky once again writes a truly alien intelligence, something nearly impossible to relate to and yet still compelling. Masterful.
