The book mentioned in the article, Children of Time by Adrien Tchaikovsky is fantastic. Adrien does an excellent job of trying to imagine how distributed intelligence would work for a species as it evolves.
- chrisweekly 4y agoYes! Tchaikovsky's brilliant and under-read. Hyperintelligent spiders using ant colonies as computers... it's far-out amd yet strangely plausible given the suspension of disbelief...
- jjjjoe 4y agoThe novel /referenced/ is Children of Ruin, the sequel, which is just as amazing. I assume the author is referring to the diptych by its first part's name. Small discrepancy which might confuse exactly the readers who would enjoy the whole work.
- abrookewood 4y agoYes, thanks for the correction.
- cellis 4y ago+1 for Children of Time. And the audiobook narration is amazing.
