Children of Memory

By Adrian Tchaikovsky
Children of Memory by Adrian Tchaikovsky digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

The modern classic of space opera that began with Children of Time continues in this extraordinary novel of humanity's battle for survival on a terraformed planet.

Earth failed. In a desperate bid to escape, the spaceship Enkidu and its captain, Heorest Holt, carried its precious human cargo to a potential new paradise. Generations later, this fragile colony has managed to survive, eking out a hardy existence. Yet life is tough, and much technological knowledge has been lost.

Then strangers appear. They possess unparalleled knowledge and thrilling technology – and they've arrived from another world to help humanity’s colonies. But not all is as it seems, and the price of the strangers' help may be the colony itself.

Children of Memory by Arthur C. Clarke Award-winning author Adrian Tchaikovsky is a far-reaching space opera spanning generations, species and galaxies.

Children of Memory Reviews

4.0
“Super good. Love the setup and the universe.”
“This was a killer series! I don’t regret reading it, but this conclusion was…confusing. Several times throughout the book I felt myself wanting to just put the book down. I powered through and finished, and the ultimate conclusion is pretty satisfying. I wouldn’t necessarily recommend this book, but the series as a whole is good!”
