Winner of the 30th anniversary Arthur C. Clarke Award for Best
Novel. Adrian Tchaikovksy's critically acclaimed novel Children of
Time, is the epic story of humanity's battle for survival on a
terraformed planet. Who will inherit this new Earth? The last
remnants of the human race left a dying Earth, desperate to find a
new home among the stars. Following in the footsteps of their
ancestors, they discover the greatest treasure of the past age - a
world terraformed and prepared for human life. But all is not right
in this new Eden. In the long years since the planet was abandoned,
the work of its architects has borne disastrous fruit. The planet
is not waiting for them, pristine and unoccupied. New masters have
turned it from a refuge into mankind's worst nightmare. Now two
civilizations are on a collision course, both testing the
boundaries of what they will do to survive. As the fate of humanity
hangs in the balance, who are the true heirs of this new Earth?
Continue the far-reaching space opera with Children of Ruin and
Children of Memory. 'Children of Time is a joy from start to
finish. Entertaining, smart, surprising and unexpectedly human.' -
Patrick Ness, author of A Monster Calls.
