Children of Time is an epic exploration of sentience and human nature. The prose is exceptional - communicative with moments of real beauty. The characters are instantly comprehensible and interesting. The book covers the excitement and danger of technology and manages to warn while still keeping an upbeat tone. The premise is unique and exquisitely delivered. Basically this is peak science fiction.
