Children of Time is among the most popular modern-day sci-fi sagas out there, becoming quintessential reading since Adrian Tchaikovsky's first novel was released 11 years ago now in 2015. Winner of the Arthur C. Clarke Award, the book earned widespread acclaim for its ambitious exploration of evolution, AI, and humanity's struggle for survival, all while telling an unforgettable story from the perspective of an unexpected new dominant species.
Its success paved the way for three acclaimed sequels, Children of Ruin in 2019, Children of Memory in 2022, and the recently released Children of Strife, each expanding the universe with new civilizations, unique depictions of first contact, and Tchaikovsky's signature philosophy-driven style of storytelling.
Together, the series has become beloved among sci-fi enthusiasts thanks to its imaginative world-building, and now the original story is getting a brand-new adaptation that fans of the novels will not want to miss (via Kickstarter).
