      It’s a great book but I dunno about boy meets girl. It’s more civilisation dies and is reborn a few thousand years later with the weird leftovers of the previous one.

      Or did it have a romance I am forgetting?

      OP be aware that this is a series that is unfinished and will likely never be finished. Good books but don’t read it expecting an ending
