blog! “Book Review: Some Desperate Glory by Emily Tesh”
★★★★☆
This is a fun bit of sci-fi. A bit tropey in places, but an excellent sense of world-building and a vicious cast of double-crossers.
The protagonist is best described by one of the character's off-hand remarks about her being “The very best space fascist girl scout of them all.”

@Edent Oh I loved that book so much. And yeah, she really is the very best space fascist girl scout, isn't she?
@Edent Liked the book. Been on a bit of an audiobook binge over the last few months, i can recommend the "Murderbot Diaries " series of books by Martha Wells
@Edent I liked that one a lot, it was complex in some weird ways. Like... sort of eugenics and child soldiers and some inklings of fascism. I appreciated how she was able to weave it all together without it just being grim and desperate at all times
