This is definitely one of my new favorite series. I wasn’t sure wher Tchaikovsky could go after CoT, but I felt this one really lived up to the vastness and complexity of that story. Also, I love octopuses. Really the most frustrating element is trying to explain the concept to someone and convince them it’s actually a very serious, intelligent series. Spiders and  Cephalopods in space sounds way too goofy.
