Eyes of the Void
Eyes of the Void | Adrian Tchaikovsky
5 posts | 4 read | 2 to read
The Arthur C. Clarke award-winning author of Children of Time brings us the second novel in an extraordinary space opera trilogy about humanity on the brink of extinction, and how one man's discovery will save or destroy us all. After eighty years of fragile peace, the Architects are back, wreaking havoc as they consume entire planets. In the past, Originator artefacts vestiges of a long-vanished civilization could save a world from annihilation. This time, the Architects have discovered a way to circumvent these protective relics. Suddenly, no planet is safe. Facing impending extinction, the Human Colonies are in turmoil. While some believe a unified front is the only way to stop the Architects, others insist humanity should fight alone. And there are those who would seek to benefit from the fractured politics of war even as the Architects loom ever closer. Idris, who has spent decades running from the horrors of his past, finds himself thrust back onto the battlefront. As an Intermediary, he could be one of the few to turn the tide of war. With a handful of allies, he searches for a weapon that could push back the Architects and save the galaxy. But to do so, he must return to the nightmarish unspace, where his mind was broken and remade. What Idris discovers there will change everything.

This second book in the Final Architecture series finds Idris helping the Parthenon to develop their own Intermediary program, while the Architects appear without warning to remake inhabited planets according to the aesthetic principles demanded by their unknown masters. The intricate, masterful world-building, vivid characters, and ratcheting tension made this an engaging and, as the end approached, riveting read.

1. Go to the Friends of the Library book sale with my sister, then fly to DC to attend AwesomeCon! (Also: finish the tagged book before I leave.)
2. Red Side Story, the sequel to Jasper Fforde's Shades of Grey. Seriously cannot wait for this one!
3. Science fiction forever! Or maybe I should say speculative fiction, to make it as all encompassing as possible.

Decalino @Cupcake12 if you ever want to give it a try, I recommend Octavia Butler or Ursula K LeGuin! Hope you have a great week too 🙂 3w

Unexpected book arrival! The BEST!

Eyes of the Void, book 2 of The Final Architecture by Adrian Tchaikovsky. Signed first edition. I loved book one, Shards of Earth.

Both books are narrated by Sophie Aldred. She‘s a Doctor Who (Sylvester McCoy) companion, ACE! (Me & my nephew met her & Nicole Bryant at a convention in Chicago a lifetime ago, they were really sweet)

Thank you The Broken Binding.
