Dan Dean reviewed Elder Race by Adrian Tchaikovsky
A short a humorous take on Tchaikovsky's theme of humanity spanning incomprehensible lengths of time
4 stars
In Tchaikovsky's "Children of Time" we saw his remarkable story of humanity's folly and brilliance as it spread across the galaxy, attempting to be it's own kind of god – succeeding in unexpected ways while also failing spectacularly. In Elder Race he shows us a shorter and more humorous version of this failure as a holdover of an advanced form of humanity loses their ability to relate to humanity's successor, but really all they want is to feel connected to others and to belong.
Dan Dean reviewed A Deadly Education by Naomi Novik
Good in every single way
5 stars
I love this book and this series. I’m reading A Deadly Education for the second time, and it’s just as fun as the first time I read it. One thing I love about Novik’s style in this book is how she interleaves the background context so thoroughly into the unrelenting pace of the narrative. There’s so much more to love about this book - just read it!
