YMMV. I found it pretty tedious, especially the 2nd in the series (Children of Ruin). I liked Tchaikovsky's Final Architecture series (Shards of Earth, etc) better.

I think Final Architecture was a better story, but the background and philosophy in the Children series is very very good indeed.

100% this. I am not at all arachnophobic -- I like spiders, I find them cute and fascinating. They were the only interesting characters in the book. The humans were all vile and the human scenes dull dull dull.

I really stuggled to finish the book and do not plan to return to the sequels.
