The Stardust Grail (Yume Kitasai)
I liked this better than her first novel, The Deep Sky. I am a sucker for aliens with weird biologies and whatnot. It doesn’t feel like horror overall but has some cosmic horror elements. More like cosmic adventure tinged with horror. Some of the characters and motivations could have been better fleshed out, but overall it was immensely readable.
