Descriere

Alien Clay is a thrilling far-future adventure by acclaimed Arthur C. Clarke Award-winning author Adrian Tchaikovsky.

An intriguing puzzle with plenty of thrills. - The Guardian

They travelled into the unknown and left themselves behind...

On the distant world of Kiln lie the ruins of an alien civilization. It's the greatest discovery in humanity's spacefaring history - yet who were its builders and where did they go?

Professor Arton Daghdev had always wanted to study alien life up close. Then his wishes become a reality in the worst way. His political activism sees him exiled from Earth to Kiln's extrasolar labour camp. There, he's condemned to work under an alien sky until he dies.

Kiln boasts a ravenous, chaotic ecosystem like nothing seen on Earth. The monstrous alien life interacts in surprising, sometimes shocking ways with the human body, so Arton will risk death on a daily basis. However, the camp's oppressive regime might just kill him first. If Arton can somehow escape both fates, the world of Kiln holds a wondrous, terrible secret. It will redefine life and intelligence as he knows it, and might just set him free . . .

A warning for a future we don't want... Highly recommended. -- Tade Thompson

Unputdownable. Adrian Tchaikovsky is fast becoming the voice of his generation in British SF. -- Stephen Baxter

One of our finest writers of SF right now... an excellent story told with Adrian's trademark skill and flair. -- James Oswald
