Reader Reviews
Niece writes with the precision of a scientist and the soul of a poet. The Change is a rare debut that announces a major new voice in speculative fiction — haunting, luminous, and impossible to forget.
I finished the final chapter at 2am and just sat there in the dark. It changed how I think about ordinary moments. The kind of book that finds you when you need it most.
Dune gave us a world. Arrival gave us a language. The Change gives us a question — and the audacity not to answer it. Niece trusts his readers completely, and that trust is exhilarating.
