Critics Review
Tchaikovsky is the break-out star of contemporary British SF * The Guardian *
Tchaikovsky is writing modern classics and you should start reading them as soon as possible – Tade Thompson, author of Rosewater
Alien Clay is convincing, compelling on human and cosmic levels, and unputdownable. With work like this, Adrian Tchaikovsky is fast becoming the voice of his generation in British SF – Stephen Baxter, author of the Xeelee Sequence
The central concept unravels itself in a manner that is both deeply satisfying and not at all predictable. He truly is one of our finest writers of SF right now. The whole was an excellent story told with Adrian’s trademark skill and flair – James Oswald, author of The Rest is Death
Adrian Tchaikovsky: king of the spiders, master world-builder and asker of intriguing questions. His books are packed with thought-provoking ideas (as well as lots of spiders; did I mention the spiders?). One of the most interesting and accomplished writers in speculative fiction – Christopher Paolini, author of To Sleep in a Sea of Stars, on Shards of Earth
[Adrian Tchaikovsky] writes incredibly enjoyable sci-fi, full of life and ideas – Patrick Ness, author of The Knife of Never Letting Go
A thoughtful, sweeping space adventure – SFX Magazine on Shards of Earth
