Like much of Mr. Tchaikovsky's 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 creatures-Bioformed, artificial or original-is the capacity to make mistakes, learn from them and be prepared to make even more tomorrow.

The 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.

Library Journal

'A book that's by turns funny and poignant, while all the time moving at a cracking pace... he may just be the UK's best science fiction novelist.'

Johnathan Wright, SFX Magazine

Bee Speaker is another top-notch science fiction tale from an author who – at least so far – can do no wrong.

Keith Stevenson, author of The Lenticular Series

'A gripping dive into bioethics and artificial intelligence'
