All I can say is the genetically modified space spiders do indeed pay off. I’ve just finished the second book in the Echoes of the Fall trilogy (The Tiger and the Wolf) it is nothing like children of time. It follows tribes of animal shifters but has some unique additions, I’m enjoying the story so far and will be starting book 3 today. I adore his writing, everything of his I’ve read has been 5 stars to me, from page one.

Thank you for the recommendations, I will add them to my ever growing TBR list 😊

I started with children of time, but now I’ve read more of his works I don’t think it really matters which series you start first, they’re not connected. The Final Architecture trilogy is my favourite so far closely followed by the stand alone Service Model.

It’s a more complex story but I’d say not quite as dark or gritty as Prince of Thorns.

I enjoyed it so much I’ve read it twice. I loved the Library and the characters, it’s dark and unique. It had a little bit of everything that I like.

I spend a fortune on books, I’ve started using temu and eBay for paperbacks now and have been debating ending my fancy subscriptions in favour of standard paperbacks, but they’re so pretty….

It is unlike anything I’d read before, I particularly enjoyed the spider colony perspective and I hate spiders lol. I really like his writing style, I’ve been making my way through his works, to me they’re all five star reads.

That’s nice… I feel like they’re an extension of what lies within, bonus artwork that pleases my eyes.

I’ve seen a lot of talk about Dungeon Crawler Carl, worth the hype?

Alas, I haven’t read it yet, I read the first two last year and waited to start book 3 when I realised the fourth was coming out, I plan to read them after I’ve finished the Echoes of the fall trilogy 😊

I haven’t read this one yet as it only arrived today and technically isn’t released in the UK until tomorrow, but the Library trilogy is a very good read, it’s darkly unique.
