Just finished Adrian Tchaikovsky's Children of Time. One of my top reads, let alone sci-fi reads, for the past couple of years for sure. Super well-thought out concepts, good character development, and an irresistible hook that will take you out of your comfort zone when you find out that you really don't know who you are siding with!

Has anyone read this or any of Tchaikovsky's other works??

The third book is definitely slow in the middle, but overall I think it's another strong addition to the series. At first I was quite lost with the characters and setting constantly changing, but once I started seeing what was really going on I was hooked.

The partners are brilliant too. Very relevant to current questions about sentience with all the AI discussions going on at the moment.
