Shards Of Earth by Adrian Tchaikovsky
This science fiction novel is set in a universe recovering from a devastating war against a seemingly invincible alien foe known as the Architects, who reshaped planets and moons for unknown purposes. The story follows Idris, a human navigator who once possessed the unique ability to communicate with the Architects, leading to the end of the conflict. Now, eight years after the war, Idris and his crew aboard a salvage vessel find themselves drawn back into a galaxy-spanning conspiracy as new threats emerge, suggesting the Architects' menace may not be as dormant as believed. The narrative weaves together themes of survival, the complexities of post-war societies, and the exploration of human and alien interactions, all while unraveling the mystery of the Architects' true intentions.
