Have not read this series (yet), but Watt's Blindsight is an absolute masterclass in literary sci-fi
I've read his works, in general all his first books are awesome, the sunflowers series is all awesome, and the rest can get a little hard to read (but I still liked them)
This is also very good but man it is dark.
Starfish ... It's very good bit also very hard on the reader very devastating
