"Brilliant science fiction and far out world building" -- James McAvoy on Children of Time -- James McAvoy "This is superior stuff, tackling big themes - gods, messiahs, artificial intelligence, alienness - with brio." -- Financial Times * Financial Times * "Tchaikovsky sharply addresses the connection between class and climate, weaving pressing ethical questions into a thrilling adventure. This is a must-read for fans of dystopian and climate change fiction." -- Publishers Weekly on Firewalkers, starred review * Publishers Weekly * "A masterclass in concise storytelling." -- ScFiNow on Firewalkers * SciFiNow * "Every chapter throws fresh surprises at the reader, continually opening out the scope of the novel, and the imagery is wonderfully vivid throughout... Tchaikovsky focuses the taut story in such a way that every detail is relevant, building towards a climax that doesnt feel possible at the beginning but which, by the end, feels like a perfect pay-off." -- SFX Magazine on Firewalkers * SFX Magazine * "A grim picture of a possible future, a diverse cast of interesting and distinct characters, a dollop of mystery and technological shenanigans. Theres some good action, tricksy AI, and a satisfying ending. Recommended." -- Civilian Reader on Firewalkers * Civilian Reader * "The wars of Tchaikovskys future are brutal, inhuman, and strangely awe-inspiring in their horror." -- Liz Bourke, Locus Magazine on Ironclads -- Liz Bourke * Locus Magazine * "Ironclads dramatises the conflicts between rich and poor, right and left, public and private in a brutally satirical fashion. At the same time, its an enormously entertaining story." -- SFcrowsnest on Ironclads * SFcrowsnest * "A smart, sharp look at warfare in a near future that may not be, but feels like a funhouse mirror on our present." -- Nerds of a Feather, Flock Together on Ironclads * nerds of a feather, flock together * "A twisty social satire." -- Publishers Weekly * Publishers Weekly * Tchaikovsky knocks it out the park a gripping, sardonic story that sticks the landing perfectly. Locus Tchaikovsky plays with the readers expectations, plucking at the strings of intrigue and thrusting out familiar allusions to lull us into a false sense of security This novel can easily stand proud with dystopian novels such as Orwells 1984 or Margaret Atwoods dystopian Maddaddam Trilogy. -- Fantasy Hive Classic Tchaikovsky with its interwoven complex themes, but also departs from his previous works into something more naturally dark and raw.
