Description
Step into the far future with two of the most visionary minds in science fiction: Peter F. Hamilton, author of Exodus: The Archimedes Engine, and Adrian Tchaikovsky, author of Shroud and the Children of Time series. In this unmissable conversation, they join forces to explore the big ideas, bold worlds, and moral questions at the heart of their work.
From space-faring civilisations to alien intelligences, they’ll discuss how science fiction helps us imagine the possibilities, and dangers, of humanity’s future.
This event promises deep insights, lively debate, and a celebration of the genre’s power to stretch the imagination and ask what it means to be human.
