Best of the first three Hainish Novels

A man in search of himself, because he is different and doesn't know why. So far, so good. The book felt slow at times, but it's a Novella so you know that it can't drag on too long.

The character is pretty likable, but the main story arc only happens in the last third of the book and then the final part is only a couple of pages long.

Recommended for completionist like me, it's a decent read.
