Sam Firke reviewed Children of Time by Adrian Tchaikovsky (Children of Time, #1)
Felt like a teen again, reading some top-notch sci fi
5 stars
Quite a feat of writing: Literary language, engaging plot, clever ending, amazing world-building, thought-provoking questions. The humans weren't quite as interesting as the spiders, sure, but their story was a good foil and drove the plot.

Gosh that was good! Literary language, engaging plot, clever ending, amazing world-building, thought-provoking questions.
My favorite part was a pair of chapters that had a tender moment between spiders and then one between humans, back to back.

About 300 pages in already and loving it. It feels like reading Ender's Game for the first time as a teen.

Sam Firke finished reading Hellions by Julia Elliott
I read one or two each day and enjoyed them. There are some images that repeat between stories, like a thatch of hair on a shower drain, but otherwise they were different enough, with varying degrees of the supernatural and darkness.
