    The main character commits rape because this isn’t a real universe anyway. You made the right choice.

      I think I remember reading about that. Ick.

      I also remember reading on the back of the book that the protag would 3 times be offered to stay in the Land and be cured, or something, and 3 times reject the offer. Way to spoil!

      This is a pretty good takedown of the series (and other shitty plot devices in SF/F): https://news.ansible.uk/plotdev.html
