review:
'A Memory Called Empire' by Arkady Martine was the June pick for my book club.
Ambassador Mahit Dzmare is sent to the Teixcalaanli Empire, but she has some help. An implant, or imago, with the memories of the last ambassador as a help. This seems like a good plan until Mahit arrives on planet and finds out that the previous ambassador has been murdered. Now her imago has malfunctioned and she is stuck in a strange society where her predecessor was killed.
I loved this book. Perhaps because I seem to like fish out of water stories in my SF. There is great worldbuilding going on here and there are some memorable characters.
