Robinson’s commitment to scientific realism brings the world—and its challenges—to life in a way that’s both intellectually stimulating and immersive.

If you enjoyed how Semiosis spanned generations, showing how each group built upon the last, The Years of Rice and Salt offers a sweeping alternate history where you’ll follow reincarnating souls across centuries, witnessing the evolution of cultures, ideas, and relationships through the ages.
