The Doors of Eden

Full of sparking, speculative invention . . . The Doors of Eden is a terrific timeslip / lost world romp in the grand tradition of Turtledove, Hoyle, even Conan Doyle. If you liked Primeval, read this book -- Stephen Baxter, author of <i>The Thousand Earths</i> The Doors of Eden shows a combination of tight, evocative prose combined with erudition. In a story whose scope is the broad canvas of the history of all life in the universe, Tchaikovsky manages to zoom in on human moments without breaking a sweat.

Hamilton, author of <i>Salvation</i> and <i>The Reality Dysfunction</i> Unlike anything I've read in a very long time, and all the better for it . . . Tchaikovsky is clearly at the top of his game right now -- James Oswald, author of the Inspector McLean novels As all right thinking people know, Adrian is the best . . . But this, my friends, is the best of the best -- Ian McDonald, author of <i>Luna</i> Tchaikovsky’s world-building is some of the best in modern sci-fi and now he has made an enchanting multiverse of parallel Earths -- <i>New Scientist</i> You know you’re in for a ride. . . This book thoroughly engaged me. Children of Ruin is a humdinger of a book I enjoyed immensely -- Neal Asher, author of <i>War Bodies</i>, on <i>Children of Ruin</i> If you only ever take one book recommendation from me, take this one. It is an astounding book. The breadth of Adrian's imagination is ASTONISHING.

Adrian Tchaikovsky is one of our finest writers -- Gareth Powell, author of the Embers of War series, on <i>Children of Ruin</i> Brilliant science fiction and far-out world-building -- James McAvoy on <i>Children of Time</i> Children of Time is a joy from start to finish.
