I really liked the first two in this series, Every Heart a Doorway and Down Among the Sticks and Bones. This one did not "wow" me quite as much as the first one, but it's still very good.

It's a quest story which provides a showcase for the author's vivid visual imagery of her imaginary worlds. As with the previous works, it touches on issues of societal expectations and biases, and the way that we internalize these, whether we're on the sending side or the receiving end. Reading the first two in advance of this one is not strictly required, but is really recommended.
