About this ebook
Michael Crichton meets Marvel’s Venom in award-winning author Seth Dickinson’s science fiction debut, named one of The New York Times' Best SFF Books of 2024.
"Agonizing and mesmerizing, a devastating and extraordinary achievement."—The New York Times
“Magnificent. . . . A science fiction action juggernaut.”—Tamsyn Muir
“Anna, I came to Earth tracking a very old story, a story that goes back to the dawn of time. It’s very unlikely that you’ll die right now. It wouldn’t be narratively complete.”
Anna Sinjari—refugee, survivor of genocide, disaffected office worker—has a close encounter that reveals universe-threatening stakes. Enter Ssrin, a many-headed serpent alien who is on the run from her own past. Ssrin and Anna are inexorably, dangerously drawn to each other, and their contact reveals universe-threatening stakes.
While humanity reels from disaster, Anna must join a small team of civilians, soldiers, and scientists to investigate a mysterious broadcast and unknowable horror. If they can manage to face their own demons, they just might save the world.

Seth Dickinson is incredibly smart. This book covers so many concepts, in details, in language specific to those concepts, boggling the mind with what he can speak on intelligently. Unfortunately, after the excellent start, approximately the first third, the rest of the book bogs down in that very intelligent, very accurate verbiage. Discussions of metaphysics are interesting, much less interesting is naming the exact gun and round being used. A hard cliff-hanger ruined any hope for me.

this is a wild ride, superb in parts but books with flashbacks are not my thing generally, however, really hoping there is a sequel

Exordia goes further, faster, in its first chapter than most science fiction series in whole.
