- moomin 2y agoHonestly that’s the book I recommend to anyone who thinks Heinlein, Asimov and Niven are all there is to good sci-fi.
- loeg 2y agoYMMV. I found it pretty tedious, especially the 2nd in the series (Children of Ruin). I liked Tchaikovsky's Final Architecture series (Shards of Earth, etc) better.
- disgruntledphd2 2y agoI think Final Architecture was a better story, but the background and philosophy in the Children series is very very good indeed.
- lproven 2y ago> I found it pretty tedious 100% this. I am not at all arachnophobic -- I like spiders, I find them cute and fascinating. They were the only interesting characters in the book. The humans were all vile and the human scenes dull dull dull. I really stuggled to finish the book and do not plan to return to the sequels.
- jamesog 2y agoChildren of Time needs to come with a huge content warning for those with arachnophobia. I got through it, but I didn't enjoy it, for that reason.
