Why read it?
1 author picked The Doors of Eden as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I toyed with recommending a different book by Adrian Tchaikovsky for this but ultimately went with this one because it is one of the most wildly imaginative books I’ve ever read. Tchaikovsky could have settled for speculating on one or two different evolutionary alternate histories of Earth, but nah. He went for ten.

From K.N.'s list on Sci-fi with worlds that may as well be characters.

Unreachable Skies
This book (and its sequels) are about overcoming the odds; about learning to improve the skills and abilities you have, rather than dwelling on what you can't do. Conflict, plague, and scheming politicians are all featured along the way–but none of the characters are human!
