'There are few who write science fiction like Ann Leckie can. There are few who ever could' John Scalzi

The mystery of a missing translator sets three lives on a collision course that will have a ripple effect across the stars in this powerful new novel by award-winning author Ann Leckie.

Qven was created to be a Presger translator. The pride of their Clade, they always had a clear path before them: learn human ways, and eventually, make a match and serve as an intermediary between the dangerous alien Presger and the human worlds. The realization that they might want something else isn't "optimal behavior". I's the type of behavior that results in elimination.

But Qven rebels. And in doing so, their path collides with those of two others. Enae, a reluctant diplomat whose dead grandmaman has left hir an impossible task as an inheritance: hunting down a fugitive who has been missing for over 200 years. And Reet, an adopted mechanic who is increasingly desperate to learn about his genetic roots - or anything that might explain why he operates so differently from those around him.

As a Conclave of the various species approaches - and the long-standing treaty between the humans and the Presger is on the line - the decisions of all three will have ripple effects across the stars.

Masterfully merging space adventure and mystery, and a poignant exploration about relationships and belonging, Translation State is a triumphant new standalone story set in Leckie's celebrated Imperial Radch universe.

'Leckie's humane, emotionally intelligent, and deeply perceptive writing makes this tautly plotted adventure feel fundamentally true while also offering longtime fans a much anticipated glimpse into the Radch's most mysterious species. Readers will be thrilled'
Publishers Weekly (starred review)

'Another of Leckie's beautiful mergings of the political, philosophical, and personal'

Great writing, performance and production ... nothing to add really. The intriguingly gendered language makes it even more enjoyable.

Great

As always, Ann Leckie delivers. I was absolutely delighted by this continuation within the "Imperial Radch" universe, especially since some light is shed on the ominous Presger and their Translators - plus we get to meet some old friends.
Adjoa Andoh's exceptional narration abilities make for the big, beautiful cherry on top.
Highly recommended to anyone with a deep love for science fiction and a curious mind. :)

Amazing, as expected

It took me a while to get into this story, but I've really enjoyed it. I loved the found family. My only criticism is that we don't get to experience a certain development from the POV of the character that lives through it.

Adjoa Andoh is a great narrator as always.

Great narration, engaging story
