Thanks to Pride Book Tours for the free copy of this book.
- YOKE OF STARS is a small novella with a huge world packed inside.
- The universe of this book has one of the most unique creation stories I’ve ever read, and a fascinating social/cultural system among its many peoples.
- It took me a few chapters to understand what was going on, given how unlike anything I’ve read this is. I honestly can’t even explain it succinctly. You just have to explore it for yourself.
- Lemberg’s prose is beautiful, and you truly feel that these characters are giving their oral histories to you.
