Yeah, if you’re looking to get into Tchaikovsky, I’d recommend either Children of Time (if you like sci-fi) or The City of Last Chances (if you like fantasy). His work is always based in his experience as a zoologist, so his environments and animals are second-to-none (even the series of which City of Last Chances is a part contains well-considered biology whenever “monsters” from “the grove” are described)

Children of Time is the trilogy that awaits my attention.
