I’ve just finished A Deepness in the Sky by Vernor Vinge. It was amazing and coincidentally my two last books where children of time(1 and 2) and (as to not spoil the reveal) a certain book involving spiders/crabs that live in high pressure environment.

I’m thoroughly enjoying the theme I have going on even if it was purely accidental, what would be some good recommendations involving sentient spider to pursue next?

      That’s actually who I was mentioning last haha. He definitely fits the bill! I was quite surprised when the author introduced him, I was not expecting it.

        I listened to Children of Time (and Children of Ruin) earlier this year. Just listening to PHM now and that was my first thought with meeting Rocky.

        I am not a fan of earthly arachnids but space-spiders seem pretty cool IMO

      Not a huge deal, but if you see this message would you be able to put a spoiler around the book title? 👽
