'A gripping dive into bioethics and artificial intelligence' * New Scientist on DOGS OF WAR * 'You don't need to have read Dogs of War to enjoy Bear Head but why deny yourself the pleasure?' * The Times on BEAR HEAD * 'Funny, appalling, gruesome and uplifting (often at the same time), Bear Head is propelled by a cracking plot that balances dystopian satire with a palpable sense of moral peril' * Daily Mail on BEAR HEAD * 'If you're a fan of Black Mirror, this classic dystopian book will have you hooked within the first few pages. Smart, fast-paced, and razor-sharp, this book is surprisingly funny while still remaining deeply thought-provoking' * Daily Express on BEAR HEAD * 'A rousing good read' * Guardian on BEAR HEAD * "A book thats by turns funny and poignant, while all the time moving at a cracking pace... he may just be the UKs best science fiction novelist." -- Johnathan Wright * SFX Magazine * Tchaikovsky is brilliant at thinking his way into the minds of these tinkered-with animals. * New Scientist * Like much of Mr. Tchaikovskys work, this series tackles big and timely issues such as freedom, agency and the slim line between philosopher-king and authoritarian dictator.. In the end, what unites all sentient creaturesBioformed, artificial or originalis the capacity to make mistakes, learn from them and be prepared to make even more tomorrow. * Wall Street Journal * Compelling main characters Magic and science are blended seamlessly, with a hint of treachery lurking in the background and a reminder that monsters are not born of appearances but of their actions.Tchaikovsky is a sci-fi maestro known for a specific medieval-meets-futuristic mesh, combined with a sense of humor similar to Martha Wells and a message about the importance of caring for ones neighbors, no matter their specific flavor of sentience. * Library Journal * Imaginative [ Tchaikovsky] makes even the hardest of sci-fi concepts so digestibleIn the end, it may be a fairly simple novel in its story, but Bee Speaker is a great addition to the Dogs of War series, introducing some memorable characters and pushing the bounds of what it actually means to be human". * FanFi Addict * If you havent read the Dogs of War trilogy, I wholeheartedly recommend that you do. They remain my favorite of Tchaikovskys books, and some of the best science fiction I have readBee Speaker is a sparkling construct that examines the power and limitations of distributed intelligence Tchaikovsky makes us rethink how we see ourselves. * Geek Dad * Bee Speaker continues Tchaikovskys unparalleled penchant of exploring and coalescing disparate themes via the vehicle of a quick-moving plot. His imagination-churn rivals none, and going through his catalog, one can only imagine, where the mad-doctor will take us next! * Distorted Visions *
