After his ship is attacked by imperialist raiders who known as the Leviathan League, Anton Moro teams up with an AI in order to defend his island against them.
Conceptually, the blurb for Dual Memory by Sue Burke sounded incredible—there's pirates, espionage, and alien microorganisms (AKA ExtraTs)! Oh, my!However, the story itself is emotionally non-engaging. We don't get enough background history on Anton's past or killed loved ones in order to help readers better understand his deep-seated personal hatred for the League.
I typically adore sci-fi with arctic settings, but the plot in this one is meandering and incoherent, the characters fall flat, and I unfortunately just couldn't get into this one.
Thank you, NetGalley and Tor, for providing me with an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
