The worldbuilding continues to shine, getting deeper and more complex and more satisfying as the story goes on. The first book was more concerned with economic class, and while that is certainly dealt with here, too, this one takes a closer look at information and history and perspective. More specifically, it shows what a crucial difference that the intent of the person framing the narrative can make—that information is power, and that trusting any source without question can be dangerous.
