A review by enbyglitch
Elder Race by Adrian Tchaikovsky
5.0
Such a fun novella! I was a little skeptical at first - the famous quote about sufficiently advanced technology appearing as magic has certainly been explored before - but Tchaikovsky delivers wonderfully.
I love the human moments between the characters, and the nuances of language shaping their interactions.
Absolutely adore the idea of the 'demon' which ultimately appears magical to even Nyr. Curious whether this could be in the same setting as Children of Time.
