Until the last chunk of the story this space opera is very quiet. There's a boarding school story and a space-crew story (set about five years later) and they're both lgbtq love stories. The colouring is beautiful and the space ship designs as well as the architecture are organically excellent, done with a delicate line. Actually, delicate is the adjective that works best for the whole book. It's great, and even though it does build up to an actiony set-piece finale that feels a lot less important than the exploration of how delicate relationships, even strong ones, can be.
