Humanity is overrated. The tenth anniversary edition of Adrian Tchaikovsky's critically acclaimed work presents an epic tale of survival on a terraformed planet, winning the 30th anniversary Arthur C. Clarke Award for Best Novel. This edition includes the exclusive short story 'Bearable.' The last remnants of humanity, fleeing a dying Earth, seek a new home among the stars and discover a world once prepared for human life. However, this new Eden is not as it seems. In the years since its abandonment, the planet's architects' efforts have led to unforeseen consequences. It is now inhabited by new masters, transforming it from a refuge into a nightmare. Two civilizations find themselves on a collision course, each pushing the limits of survival. As humanity's fate hangs in the balance, the question arises: who are the true heirs of this new Earth? The journey continues in the subsequent works. Praise for Tchaikovsky highlights the engaging, intelligent, and unexpectedly human narrative, with accolades from notable figures in literature and science. Children of Time has been recognized as a standout in contemporary British science fiction, solidifying Tchaikovsky's reputation as a leading voice in the genre.
