Blythe continues her pilot's test, having completed her first mission, and is now sent out on her second - to examine the plane that the writer Antoine de St. Exupéry died on. There is definitely a literary theme going on as Blythe works through these missions, as she must examine the remnants of authors who either flew or wrote about flight, as HG Wells did.
It is interesting that Blythe is not interested in reading the book that Wells wrote about her, and when she speaks with St. Exupéry, she is not all that surprised that he knows her already. Blythe takes a couple more steps towards independence and self-determination when she argues with her boss, and demonstrates that she is no longer happy allowing others to set the agenda.
While this book can be a little slow moving, I have been enjoying it quite a bit.
