Disappointing follow-up to the brilliant Ancillary Justice. Leckie does not expand on the universe she created in the 1st book and this one comes off as being too preachy and downright boring. Breq uncovers a plot involving the illegal use of a recently impoverished annexed race to create more ancillaries, presumably orchestrated by the "evil" Mianaai.

Even though not engaging, it sets up the last book in the trilogy and I will read it simply based on the merits of the 1st book.
