Reviews
If Homer had written space opera . . . Enthralling, epic, immersive and hugely intelligent. This might be Tchaikovsky's best so far, and that's saying somethingStephen Baxter, author of the Xeelee Sequence, on Shards of Earth
Adrian Tchaikovsky: king of the spiders, master worldbuilder, and asker of intriguing questions. His books are packed with thought-provoking ideas (as well as lots of spiders; did I mention the spiders?). One of the most interesting and accomplished writers in speculative fictionChristopher Paolini, author of To Sleep in a Sea of Stars and Fractal Noise
He writes incredibly enjoyable sci-fi, full of life and ideasPatrick Ness, author of The Knife of Never Letting Go and A Monster Calls
