À propos de cet audio

Adrian Tchaikovksy's critically acclaimed stand-alone novel Children of Time is the epic story of humanity's battle for survival on a terraformed planet.

Who will inherit this new Earth?

The last remnants of the human race left a dying Earth, desperate to find a new home among the stars. Following in the footsteps of their ancestors, they discover the greatest treasure of the past age - a world terraformed and prepared for human life.

But all is not right in this new Eden. In the long years since the planet was abandoned, the work of its architects has borne disastrous fruit. The planet is not waiting for them pristine and unoccupied. New masters have turned it from a refuge into mankind's worst nightmare.

Now two civilizations are on a collision course, both testing the boundaries of what they will do to survive. As the fate of humanity hangs in the balance, who are the true heirs of this new Earth?

A superb story. A real gem. One of the best sci-fi stories I’ve read and listened to in a long time. Very original. Highly recommended.

Excellent book

Children of time was by far my favourite listen. The two story’s so well thought out and coming together for an unpredictable ending. A few very short parts kinda got dry but didn’t last long. 10/10 would recommend for any science fiction fan.

Amazing listen

Only reason why 4 stars not 5 is it isn't really that unique or ahead of its competitors. I enjoyed it, but it won't stick with me or make me tell everyone I know to read it. Worth a listen though.

Quite good!

I really enjoyed listening to this. It takes you on a journey to the far reaches of space and time and is surprisingly heartfelt considering its co-narrators. If you like science fiction you will enjoy this book. The performance is as excellent as the story.

Gripping.

The book did drag just a tad. There was a point when I was wondering if it was ever going to stop. Liked the ending. Liked the fact that the story made spiders the heroes— reminiscent of Childhood’s End.

Spiders. Little nervous about smart spiders.

Excellent ideas, suspense, clever resolutions, but required too much suspension of scientific skepticism for my taste.

Great story, great philosophy, flawed science.
