Lords of Uncreation: An epic space adventure from a master storyteller (The Final Architecture Book 3)

Product Information

Only the Essiel, a species of aliens, know how to move Originator artifacts without destroying this protective effect. It doesn't help their case that there are a huge number of characters and species (often poorly explained) that are interspersed and interacting. It took me weeks to read a book that would normally have taken three days because I got too bored to continue. It is action scene after action scene after action scene, space battle after space battle, with an occasional hand-to-hand battle thrown in for good measure. Not what I would have expected or even have hoped for, but that's what makes it all the more amazing.

Mostly, he is off on his own, trying to find where the Architects live in unspace so that he can begin to understand the power that directs them to kill.

Patiesu prieku sagādāja tas, ka autors stāstu bija izstrādājis jau no pirmās grāmatas (vismaz tāds iespaids radās) un tādēļ neviena grāmata nešķita atrauta no pārējām.

Yes yes, the nobles from Magda are bastards, there are competing factions within the Hugh, let’s just get on with the Architects, please. Not showy, but engaging, with vivid descriptions, that don't overstay their welcome and punchy, sometimes very funny dialogue. The familiarity is hardly the book’s fault, but when an author is as innovative as Tchaikovsky, familiarity isn’t what I’m here for. And - I had to enjoy the bits of criticism in here, as the actions of several factions of humanity in the face of crisis reflect those of factions in our society dealing with e. For reasons unclear even to himself he subsequently ended up in law and has worked as a legal executive in both Reading and Leeds, where he now lives.Idris argues against the extermination of the Architects and senses in their strangely artistic way of reworking the planets they destroy “the expression of their grief at being made to do the will of monsters. And taking all three books in the 'Final Architecture'-trilogy together, this is one of the, if not the best modern space opara, with an imagination that is hard to find anywhere else in the genre, combining vivid action, engaging characters and awe-inducing ideas.

The inter-personal exploration was as interesting as Idris going into Unspace even deeper to find the Lords of Uncreation. Without dropping any spoilers, the book ties up almost every loose thread, wraps up the story and left me thinking about what I'd read for quite a while after I finished it. There were some rather poignant parts with some of the characters including Ash, Ahab and the Hivers.We also never see her struggle with spying on her friends or what information she has to struggle with to give or not give her captures. It is here in the Eye that the Ints – among them, Idris – have been hooked up to machinery that carefully records physical life signs as they delve into unspace. On the strength of this last book in The Final Architecture I think this is my favorite series of his and this is my favorite sci fi book of his that I've read. I would also like to know more about what happens/happened with some of the other characters and potential developments - the story has really stuck with me. This is the endgame (among many other plot threads) and it's been well orchestrated; a very good hard science fiction read from a brilliant and talented author, highly recommend the whole series.

Tchaikovsky manages to have the incredible task of saving the universe as you know it by more or less regular persons (some human, some not — and even the Unspeakable Aklu, the Razor and the Hook) seem not as ridiculous as it should be, and that’s quite a feat to accomplish. Of course, there is nothing wrong with going back to the same well as others as long as you bring something new, and usually, Adrian Tchaikovsky can be trusted to do that.Deep within unspace, where time moves differently, and reality isn’t quite what it seems, their masters are the true threat. The series also constitutes something of a homage to Golden Age science fiction, being an epic adventure cast in space, but with all too recognizable humans with all their strengths and weaknesses (and prejudices). Her anger at the Parthenon was addressed in the previous books, but for some reason her entire personality changes to become a genocidal maniac who starts screaming conspiracies for eighty pages, causing a bloody war, and then she REGRETS it in a single sentence. This is such an epic science-fiction series and every phenomenal piece of the puzzle fell together beautifully here. For example, conflict between Hugh and the Parthenon is examined through the characters of Idris and Solace.
