Review:
Wow. This book tears apart relationships and defines the nature of relationships over and over. This feels like a world that could really live. It could really exist. What a wonderful book. A certain degree of horrifying, but a very interesting idea and a wonderfully well developed concept.
The idea of a sentient planet is interesting (I once read a book by Hoyle that had a sentient cloud that devoured stars). The effect of the Moon on the world reminds me of The Three Body Problem and also the Helliconia series.
