The Terraformers by Annalee Newitz
5.0

Wow. Just...wow. One of the most incredibly unique works of scifi I've read in a while. Imagine a world where almost everything is sentient in a way that humans are, and you've got the crux of this book. The way the story developed was fascinating - starting with the basic formation of a planet/colony/whatever you want to call it and ending with a planet inhabited by beings from all walks of life, literally. I'm such a big fan of this. Genuinely one of the most clever pieces of scifi I've read in a while.
