the basics: it is a military sci-fi in which everyone is plotting against each other and the good guys are comically obviously the bad guys

the good shit: it has a really cool aesthetic flavour where the little details matter - some people like card games, or robots, or pastries, or kimchi, or geese, and all this shit winds up being significant and beautiful

bonus: there are no straight people. There's no romantic plotlines but the book takes the time to make it clear that the main character is a lesbian, her foil is a bi dude and the Xanatos Grandmaster is basically Revolver Ocelot
