Incredible book, unlike anything I’ve read before.

The spider chapters stop the action in its tracks. The spider technology is ridiculous and too far fetched. The deus ex machina resolution at the end makes it all more infuriating.

I loved how different this book is. It really opened my mind on evolution and other cultures/societies.

Not what I expected - in a good way. The same tropes you see in most science fiction novels were not here. original. fantastic.

It’s a sci-fi dream written in a fantastic culminating form. If you are a scientist, do not miss this fictional masterpiece.

Excellent… Original thinking. As interesting as Asimov’s Foundation.

Masterfully built allegory that engages and challenges the reader. Not since lord of the flies have I read as poignant of a story related to current times.

Such an imaginative, incredibly descriptive, wonderful piece of science fiction artwork! Can’t wait to read the next book in the series!! Loved it.

Loved it from start to finish.

This is one of the best science fiction novels I have ever read. No plot spoilers in this review, but the interwoven tale of the development of life on a terraformed world and its inevitable clash with humanity is simply breathtaking.
