Another story about identity, huh…maybe if I’d read (more) sci-fi when I was younger, I wouldn’t be as shocked to find this trope. I’m not really shocked; it’s common because it cuts to the core of what it means to be human. “Who am I?” is a question all of us ask whether consciously or unconsciously at some point, and the answer is rarely simple, especially for those of us who experience Imposter Syndrome.
There are three other books in the series, but only one direct sequel The Summer Queen. The other two focus on one of the cops or Blues. I’d like to read them eventually. The books are out of print, which makes them more expensive. I’d like to pick up this one as well as the next, as I have to return it to the library in a few days, so I won’t have a reference for my eventual review when I get to it.
