I’m slowly getting through This Alien Shore by C.S. Friedman. There’s some really interesting worldbuilding going on around neurodivergence and how social customs can facilitate understanding and mutual respect, but I’m a little turned off by the capitalistic, predatory, cyberpunk space opera setting, hence the slowness.

    Children of Time is the only book I’ve read by him. Really enjoyed the alien perspective sections, but the human chapters were hard to get through.

      Yeah, the alien part was definitely more interesting. I also really enjoyed the sequel, and can definitely recommend it if you liked Children of Time. The alien perspective is even more interesting there.
