“Major themes include the complexity of thinking about ethics, the challenge of taking on problems in the world that seem insurmountable, and trying to do good while dealing with serious mental health issues. The characters do not start out masters of rationality, but they do learn from their mistakes and grow as people, and do their best to help support each other.”
Compared to HPMOR, I think “A Song for Two Voices” does a much better job representing the EA community. I.e. trying to do good as a community with limited resources instead of a solitary hero single-handedly saving the day. (Not to bash HPMOR—it’s also an excellent read!)
I love Miranda’s fanfic series “A Song for Two Voices” for EA-themed fantasy. https://www.archiveofourown.org/series/936480
