Acerca de esta escucha

Humanity clings to life on a dying Earth in an epic, far-future science fiction novel from an award-winning author.

The sun is bloated, diseased, dying perhaps. Beneath its baneful light, Shadrapar, last of all cities, harbours fewer than 100,000 human souls. Built on the ruins of countless civilisations, Shadrapar is a museum, a midden, an asylum, a prison on a world that is ever more alien to humanity.

Bearing witness to the desperate struggle for existence between life old and new is Stefan Advani: rebel, outlaw, prisoner, survivor. This is his testament, an account of the journey that took him into the blazing desolation of the western deserts; that transported him east down the river and imprisoned him in the verdant hell of the jungle's darkest heart; that led him deep into the labyrinths and caverns of the underworld. He will meet with monsters, madman, mutants.

The question is, which one of them will inherit this Earth?

This title seems to be more overtly humorous than his other books. I am only a small fraction of the way in and already totally immersed in the world.

masterful inversion in style

Loved the cage of souls. Tchaikovsky has so many wonderful ideas and is great at conveying alien feelings or perspectives with a sense of otherness with just enough familiarity to make it even creepier.

Stefan Advani is our reluctant narrator and Tchaikovsky plays with setting, timing and testing the limits of being human. Stefan has an education, a will to live, and a problem of being in the right place at the right time. We see all of his humanity and courage set against comments of cowardice and only doing the right thing because of the esteem of his fellows.

The great portrayal of the other that was Gaki a psycho with a smile who truly does whatever he wants with little to no regard for authority.

David Thorpe does a wonderful job bringing the cast to life. An array of voices to keep each character separate and some wonderful talk from the others in the book. "Wardens gonna toast ya"

The books is a tragedy. We see the loss of idealism and the ending of humanity is within sight. the heir apparents are starting to make themselves known with no real reason why. Even in these dire circumstances humans must try to maneuver for advantage of get crushed for being in the way of those with power and authority.

I enjoyed it. I'd recommend it.

Tchaikovsky and Thorpe are a wonderful team

Very different feel from Tchaikovsky’s other books but so, so good. Got hooked early and loved every minute thereafter. Sad it’s over now.

Fantastic story, incredible narration.

I can understand the mixed response of others, as this isn’t Tchaikovsky’s usual fare, and it certainly depicts an unforgiving and fairly dark world. But it’s a fascinating world, the building of such being Tchaikovsky’s strong suits. The darkness of the setting is balanced by the protagonist’s wit, and hai observations bring the world to life. Absolutely worth checking out for any fan of the author or the Dying Earth sub genre and the adventure/travelogue genres.

A gem of the Dying Earth sub genre

This book had it all villains, monsters and heroes. Character development, outstanding and an interesting delve into the mind of a criminal. oh and did I say that the narrator is awesome! He has voices that I love and love to hate!

Fantastic book and narration A+++++

This book captured my attention, even though it is fairly bleak. It’s not a masterpiece like Children of Time is, but then what is? However it is a solid entry, with strong characterization of the main character, and themes that resonate with both current and recurring issues of human life.

This book is more of a man’s world than his other books, with several female characters being viewed through fairly narrow lenses. However, unlike many authors, this is actually done intentionally, and even explicitly called out several times.

Overall, this was another strong book and I’m thrilled to have found this prolific and talented author.

Narration excellent, book engrossing

I don’t know how AC does it every time, but this is another masterpiece. Pulls you in and strings you along with every chapter. Incredible depth and variety. Wonderful.

Incredible storytelling

More rich world building with fantastic narration. A T builds a new yet familiar word of imaginative characters and perhaps a warning

another amazing performance

this is a new favorite of mine! love having the narrow single perspective in a world that is collapsing in on itself.

the narrator was fantastic 👏 👌

Lots of interesting characters and sidebar stories keeps it interesting. However the ending sorsort of leaves a lot unresolved. Could be a great conceptual fiction, but doesn't really give you an A HA moment.

Compelling world building with interesting characters with and ending that just kind of ends.
