Title Babel, or the Necessity of Violence Author R. F. Kuang Location Other Rating Recommended Book Review This book was quite obviously written by someone who is very intelligent, leading to some great world building in a fantastical era of colonialism. However, it does suffer a bit from being long-winded or giving overall unnecessary facts alongside the plot. If you’re willing to read a longer book, I would recommend this for someone who enjoys the worlds of books and the questioning of ethics and loyalties in nature versus nurture.
