Alastair Reynolds recommends
The Future (2023)
Naomi Alderman
"The Future couldn't be more timely, or more welcome. It's the book we need right now. It manages to be a persuasive, carefully thought-through manual for social and technological change, a roadmap to a better, greener, kinder tomorrow - a world that's ours for the taking if we want it badly enough - while also a rollicking, fun-packed thriller with juicy stakes, constantly escalating twists, and a cast of characters who feel like they already exist somewhere out there in our fragile, free-wheeling present."
A Stranger in the Citadel (2023)
Tobias S Buckell
"Tobias Buckell packs a trilogy's worth of action and invention into this riotously-paced novel, which builds to a moving conclusion. It's an exciting and surprising book, a thriller which also happens to be a thoughtful meditation on power, knowledge and loyalty."
Ethera Grave (2023)
(Graven, book 3)
Essa Hansen
"A sucker punch to the senses...A killer story with real heart and soul."
