Oooh, interesting! I haven't read this one, but the idea of transmuting magical armor and Faerie and picaresque into sci fi through the filter of Le Guin's brain is a really compelling one.
(I've actually read much less Le Guin than I'd like, for all that she's one of my favorite authors based on what I have read. I keep meaning to fix that. So this is a very useful review to have!)
