“This was a wonderful short story that gives more insight into the history of the homunculi and their early interactions with humans.
It was brief but enjoyable, and I appreciated the characters and the world of the tower built in this.”
“The prequel short story to "Made Things", wich will be released in December 2025. (Edit: ebook was available now, so I got it 😅)
I knew nothing about it, but it took just a jiffy to get what's going on. Beautiful concept and Adrian Tchaikovsky could deliver, again, a fantastic world in such a short story! Definitely going to read "Made Things"!
The story is available for free on TOR”
