Dichronauts by Greg Egan explores a world with two spatial and two time dimensions. As usual in his fiction, the premise is backed by math [1], but unlike his older works, I find Dichronauts too tedious and boring.

- mvdtnz 3y agoThe story really is poor but the universe is so fascinating I had no problem finishing this book. I had to refer to your linked post several times during the relatively short read.
- arunix 3y agoWhat are some of his older works that you'd recommend?
- architek1 3y agoDiaspora is one I’d recommend for sure.
- Klaster_1 3y agoHonestly, I recommend all of his works. Diaspora and Permutation City are often mentioned here on HN - that's how I got started with the author - and I agree, these two stand out among the rest, at least for me, but only because I found the topics the books explore more relatable and engaging.
