I have never met anyone who has read Alastair Reynolds’ Revelation Space series. It’s one of my favourite sci-fi’s and I can’t even get someone I know to read it, everyone thinks it’s boring :)
Got an elevator pitch for us?
I've read Revelation Space and Chasm City.
I'm sorry, but they are a massive struggle.
A friend gave me that and name of the wind for my birthday 10+ years ago. Loved name of the wind but never picked up the Alastair Reynolds book.
