1 author picked Translation State as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This engrossing science fiction novel follows three very different protagonists – from different backgrounds and different species – and slowly, skillfully weaves their searches, their talents, and their experiences together until it reaches a splendid and satisfying finale.
I haven’t read a lot of straight science fiction recently (although it was once practically all I read).
Still, this novel reminded me why I really love the genre, which it uses to create believable and sympathetic characters that are simultaneously alien and familiar.
