She eventually learns that the original Oyin Da was killed in the explosion; she now exists as a non-physical being, a pattern of thought remaining in the xenosphere.

Hannah Jacques, the wife of the mayor, sues the Rosewater government and alleges that the takeover of human bodies is a civil rights violation.

Femi and Oyin Da create a virus designed to destroy the Homians on their data servers, committing genocide to save humanity.

According to a review for The Guardian, The Rosewater Redemption explores the concept of personhood through the use of characters such as Oyin Da and Lora Asiko.

Oyin Da no longer has a physical body and exists within the xenosphere; Asiko is Jack's robot and has control over her own programming.

For example, Homians have destroyed their own native ecology, which prompts the reader to consider "if a species deserves a second chance after polluting its own planet to death".

The review finds it interesting that readers are disturbed when an eradicated indigenous group is Homo sapiens, but not when it is a particular aboriginal community.

[2] Writing for The Guardian, Abigail Nussbaum called the novel "a stunning conclusion to a trilogy that expands our understanding of what science fiction can do".

[1] Kirkus gave the novel a starred review, stating that it avoided the trope of "contentious nations of the world ... uniting despite their differences".

"[4] The Los Angeles Review of Books praised the novel's complex themes, writing that the series has "a bitter undercurrent that I find difficult to fully shake from my mind".
