I’ve read half of the best novel finalists: Raven Scholar and The Everlasting are both fantastic, but Death of the Author is one of the worst books I’ve read in years.

Similar. Shroud and A Drop of Corruption are both great. Corruption is the second book in the series. "The Tainted Cup" is the first.

Adrian Tchaikovsky is, imho, one of the all time greats.

Haven't read any of the others.

What. New Adrian Tchaikovsky series dropped and I didn't notice!? Brb.

Shroud is a standalone. Sorry.

I know how you feel. Just finished the last book in the Tyrant Philosophers. Have to seek out more and more...
