Après un sommeil de plusieurs siècles, Lilith s'éveille à bord du vaste vaisseau spatial des Oankali. Créatures dotées de tentacules, experts en génétique, ils ont sauvé les rares survivants d'une Terre mourante et sont prêts à ramener Lilith et les derniers humains sur leur planète régénérée. Mais la survie a un prix…
I hadn't really read the blurb and was just going by recommendations, not really knowing what to expect except for an interesting world. This wasn't wrong but I didn't expect Dawn to be this thrilling and chilling at the same time. Definitely continuing this series
The Oankali have strange and disturbing ideas about consent, which makes this an uncomfortable book to read. (This is, like, intentional, though.)
There's a disregard for singular 'they' as a genderless pronoun, instead 'it' is used to refer to the Ooloi; this doesn't feel as bad as it might because it's apparently the pronoun that the Ooloi chose to use for themselves in English
The biggest problem I have with it technically is that not all that much happens for much of the book? At least the first half is spent with Lilith just learning things about the Oankali. Which is interesting, but pretty slow
