Shortlisted for the Ursula K. Le Guin Fiction Prize! An Indie Next Reading Group Selection! "There's an Ursula Le Guin-like grace to [Tchaikovsky's] storytelling, to the shifting of cadences. Everything about this book suggests deliberate care in uniting epic fantasy's immersive world-building with the sharp, dislocating bursts of high-concept science fiction... Ten out of 10." -- New York Times "[An] epic tale of a land ruled by magic--or the sober record of a world colonized by science...The double vision built into the story works well." -- Wall Street Journal "[A] seamless blend of science fiction and fantasy... Recommended for lovers of portal fantasy, lost colony science fiction, and stories on the border between the two genres" -- Library Journal "Tchaikovsky takes beloved tropes to exciting new places, carried by memorable characters and clever prose. This proves yet again why Tchaikovsky is a master of the genre mash-up." -- Publishers Weekly " Elder Race is a really fun novella, displaying Tchaikovsky's trademark sharp prose and big ideas conveyed in interesting ways." -- GrimDark Magazine More Praise for Adrian Tchaikovsky "Picking up an Adrian Tchaikovsky book is proof you love your brain and want it to be happy." --John Scalzi "A great coming-of-age story that careens through a world so vividly realized that you can feel each insect bite and taste every acrid berry. The Expert System's Brother gives you that visceral eek of satisfaction as its pieces come into view then fit together with exacting precision. It's a smart story, smartly told." - Hugo Award winner, John Chu "I loved it. A bold, vivid story about humanity and the broader universe. Should we mold the universe to suit us? Or should we mold ourselves to suit the universe? Adrian Tchaikovsky keeps these choices in tension, and kept me riveted to the page." - Ramez Naam, author of Nexus on The Expert System's Brother " Children of Time is a joy from start to finish. Entertaining, smart, surprising and unexpectedly human." - Patrick Ness "Brilliant science fiction and far out world building" - James McAvoy on Children of Time "A refreshingly new take on post-dystopia civilizations, with the smartest evolutionary worldbuilding you'll ever read" - Peter F.

Synopsis
"A Ursula Le Guin-like grace... Ten out of 10." -- New York Times In Adrian Tchaikovsky's Elder Race , a junior anthropologist on a distant planet must help the locals he has sworn to study to save a planet from an unbeatable foe. Lynesse is the lowly Fourth Daughter of the queen, and always getting in the way. But a demon is terrorizing the land, and now she's an adult (albeit barely) with responsibilities (she tells herself). Although she still gets in the way, she understands that the only way to save her people is to invoke the pact between her family and the Elder sorcerer who has inhabited the local tower for as long as her people have lived here (though none in living memory has approached it). But Elder Nyr isn't a sorcerer, and he is forbidden to help, and his knowledge of science tells him the threat cannot possibly be a demon...

The seller reached out to let me know one book in my order was in a different condition than listed, offered a discount, and even included a surprise bonus book that looks amazing! Shipping was incredibly fast, the packaging was thoughtful and secure, and the books arrived exactly as described. I could spend hours browsing this shop--such a gem! I'll definitely be back soon!

My books (The Harry Potter Bloomsbury Paperbacks, Books 1-4) arrived exactly as described, not that I had any reservations as her original listing photographs were completely transparent and nicely done so it left little room for speculation. Inclusively she refunded me 10.00 of my original order when I did not realise she had Book 4 so I was charged less for shipping. This seller is genuinely reliable.
