Autor Ann Leckieen Limba Engleză Paperback – 18 sep 2017
On
a
remote,
icy
planet,
the
soldier
known
as
Breq
is
drawing
closer
to
completing
her
quest.
Breq
is
both
more
than
she
seems
and
less
than
she
was.
Years
ago,
she
was
theJustice
of
Toren--
a
colossal
starship
with
an
artificial
intelligence
linking
thousands
of
corpse
soldiers
in
the
service
of
the
Radch,
the
empire
that
conquered
the
galaxy.
An
act
of
treachery
has
ripped
it
all
away,
leaving
her
with
only
one
fragile
human
body.
And
only
one
purpose--
to
revenge
herself
on
Anaander
Mianaai,
many-bodied,
near-immortal
Lord
of
the
Radch.

Recenzii
"If
you
don't
know
the
Ancillary
series
by
now,
you
probably
should.
Ann
Leckie's
sociopolitical
space
opera
almost
singlehandedly
breathed
new
cool
into
the
stereotype
of
spaceships
trundling
through
far-off
systems
amid
laser
battles.
...
[Ancillary
Mercy]
earns
the
credit
it's
received:
As
a
capstone
to
a
series
that
shook
genre
expectations,
as
our
closing
installment
of
an
immersively
realized
world,
and
as
the
poignant
story
of
a
ship
that
learned
to
sing."—NPR
