Reynolds can weave a complex story with far future imaginings. Advances in medicine, and longevity, genetic uplift of non-humans (in this case monkeys and pigs), and alien tech no one can really figure out - either how it works, or what it's for.

pickI read this as the 3rd in the series in a Revelation Space omnibus on the kindle but it‘s more a direct follow-up to the 1st book. As always, the ideas are superb and the book zips along at warp factor 9 for the first 75%. Then the breaks go on and the denouement we are promised doesn‘t materialise. I feel like the last part of the book was changed to give us a build up to an epilogue that serves as a prelude to the next book. A great read though.
Surprise signed copy! I had no idea when I bought this in May, I just wanted to read the next book!
Lovely surprise 😁
Today's adventure :trying out a new tea placed called dragonflies and butterflies... As my IG handle is 'among the dragonflies' I had to test it.... So #bookandtea!
This morning was a 5k race in the rain so this afternoon I deserve a book and tea under the fake fur blanket!
Funny : I started reading redemption ark today and according to FB I had started reading the previous volume of that serie on the same day last year :) April is for hard sf ;)
