Ok, I received my copy of Terraformers from Amazon and am reading it avidly. It's great! Thx for the heads up.

Thx Sam! I just ordered a copy from Amazon copy and will have it Friday! I also would like to put in a plug for Adrian Tchaikovsky's Children of Ruin series which also deals with sentient Earth species on distant planets. He has done a lot of evolutionary/biological sci fi of a high quality!

Wow, I'm glad my review inspired you so much!

And for future readers, I just want to totally endorse Michael's comment: I LOVE the Children of Ruin series (and yes, there are a lot of parallels to The Terraformers!), and Adrian Tchaikovsky generally! His The Doors of Eden is also spectacular. Thanks a lot Michael!

Yes I've got almost all of AT's scify output. I ❤️ science fiction and AT is one of the best writers out there. An extra bonus is that some of the deepest questions in philosophy have been examined by scify writers. Greg Egan is a good example as is some John C. Wright.🙂
