Intriguing concepts, especially the Empress’s world. Some parts felt a bit dated, but overall, a worthwhile read for its feminist perspective.

A mixed bag. ‘Blazing World’ is imaginative, but ‘The Contract’ was a little slow. Debroy’s ideas are interesting.

This book is good but the ideas in it are just that, ideas, very little is shown to the reader making it drag on

The book is not very consistent, some writings are good, some are bad. The bad writings really drag the book down

Loved the utopian vision! Some of the language was challenging, but the themes of equality resonated strongly.

Some parts of Blazing World are slow, but the vision of the world makes up for that. Great ideas and very fun
