Ancillary Mercy, the conclusion of the Imperial Radch trilogy, retains the tighter focus of the trilogy's middle novel. While many of the questions of Ancillary Sword are addressed, the trilogy leaves some of the larger-scale concerns of Ancillary Justice unresolved. Instead, the novel focuses on events at Athoek station, as well as the personal development of Breq and her troubled officers. It was satisfying to see Breq maneuvering against an Anaander Miaanai again, but the novel ends before we get to see the longer-term consequences of her interesting decisions in this confrontation. While this does close out the trilogy, I hope that this is not the last novel about the Imperial Radch.
