A review by otherhorde
Planet of Exile by Ursula K. Le Guin
4.0
The Hainish Cycle moves forward again!!
Planet of Exile is a fantastic little book, full of ups and downs interesting perspective and that chefs kiss Le Guin world building.
A lot of reviews hold her earlier work pretty harshly to the standard of Left Hand, which I get why that book slaps hard! Its a bit unfair though, these early novels are capital P Pulp, and somehow find as much or more nuance than the sci-fi giants of the time.
