It seems that the Senri arc just won't end, not that I'm complaining. At the beginning of the book, I was sure that we would be learning more and more about Husky. Apparently we'll have to wait for that. Senri is my favorite character, but I'd like to learn more about the other characters.
This book also goes into the theories behind slavery. It discusses how people thought, and still think, that whomever they enslave would be worse off without them. No matter how kind the master,a slave is a slave.
The series never ceases to draw me in, and I can't wait for the next book.
