i’ve been listening to children of time recently, and it features a society that i would describe as fairly solarpunk, altho not in the typical way. it’s a pretty good read :3
Oh my gods. I love this series so much. I don’t know if I’d call the entire thing solar punk, rather the goal of the series seems to be to play with the idea of what life could look like if the person is vastly different from a human. I would highly recommend the entire series, though.
I love all of the books and rate them some of my favourites of all time, but my absolute favourite is Children of Memory. It took me a decent amount of time to figure out what was going on, and it was absolutely devastating. Then he turned it around and revealed that my conclusion was wrong, and it was even worse.
I love Kern as a character. She’s headstrong and steadfast in her beliefs from the get-go, and I find that really compelling in a person. She’s not without kindness though, even though that kindness often comes as a result of self-interest.
Most of Tchaikovsky’s sci Fi can be described as off-centered solar punk.
I loved the Final Architecture series, though that’s probably the least solar punk. I’m in the middle of The Expert System’s Brother, which is excellent.
I recommend Elder Race too.
I’ve read 11 Tchaikovsky and 7 Becky Chambers books over the past few years, so I’m a little biased.

I’ve had that one staring at me from my bookshelf for months now, I need to get to it. Glad to hear a positive recommendation for it
