Wow, this was a great parcel, thanks for the 2 excellent books, and all the goodies. I absolutely love the release labels.
Well through coincidence I met Tehuti today. My partner has read this and enjoyed it, and it is very near the top of TBR.

This was a strange book, I spent a large chunk of time thinking the amin character was female, from the writing style, than found out he was male. this was unsettling, but I carried on, and the book has a wonderful storyline, and great characters, but did not grab me and carry me away. I enjoyed it, but it was not as easy as I like my escapist fantasy/sci-fi to be.
I'll save this for the VBB

Rec'd yesterday, cheers :) I spent a lot of time being confused, but it's good to read sci fi with a female lead.

WILD RELEASE NOTES:
Taking to meet tomorrow at 12 pm.
Picked up at yesterday's meet-up.
She looked so vulnerable, but to my utter dismay I sensed something beneath my love and pity; something old and insistent and dark, that called for death . . . My vision blackened and I looked down into the nightmare of the bloodmind.
Three missionaries and an anthropologist from the stable, terraformed planet of Irie St Syre, travel to the planet of Monde D’Isle, to find out what became of the colonists who travelled there thousands of years ago. Expecting to find a nicely terraformed planet, they are shocked to find that the head of the colonising expedition never even began the terraforming process, deciding instead to alter the colonist to fit the harsh environment of their new home, leaving them no longer entirely human.
Interesting world-building and discussions about whether the new arrivals would be justified in interfering in Monde D'Isle either by switching on the terraforming machines or by trying to change the inhabitants' biology and culture.

WILD RELEASE NOTES:
At today's meet-up.
Will give this a go as recommended.
An interesting book. As others have said, the author keeps the gender of the main character something of a secret. The book itself explores the key theme of what it means to be human. The answer is about what is inside, not what one looks like.
