Özet

Nearly 100,000 years after first contact with the machines that dominate the universe, only a few hundred humans survive. Trapped on Snowglade, a barren world near the center of the galaxy, Killeen and his child, Toby, of the Bishop Trib,e are primitive scavengers, homeless and hunted by the ruling “mechs”. Then suddenly, a strange cosmic entity – neither organic nor cybernetic or living matter – reaches out from a black hole to speak with Killeen. But can the fallen descendent of starfarers understand this being in time - and seize his only chance to save his family and mankind from final annihilation?

Slow start but getting really good in time. Enjoyed it. Getting next part for sure.

Good book, light spoilers so keep that in mind. I wish Benford gave the chandelier humans more credit when it came to a bunch of robots showing up and terraforming the planet, maybe I've been reading too much war hammer but I was shocked when the humies didn't murder the mechs on sight, or any time during the many years it takes to terraform a planet; especially when it started spoiling their crop yields.

I also wish there was a better description of mech combat/the weapons used but this isn't a deal breaker and I found myself mostly satisfied on that front regardless.

All in all this is a solid read and would have been mindblowing back in the day when it released, even now it stands up to today's modern sci-fi. As a genre I wish hard sci-fi was more popular but I can understand why people go for the Star Wars style space opera stuff.

Nice addition to the series (I skipped 1 and 2 because f all that.) I'm excited to get onto Tides of Light which I read a while ago but want to brush up on because I remember it was heavy, and then find out where these lunatics end up after all that.

Decent
