My Thoughts

Crazy that this was the author's first novel. It's been a while since I read it at this point but what I remember is the drone swarm control concepts being as interesting as the discussion of sentient octopi. The idea that communicating accumulated knowledge to offspring (and storytelling) is an essential part of a species developing "true intelligence" was interesting.
