Semiosis
Summary
In Semiosis, debut author Sue Burke's character-driven audiobook of first contact, human survival hinges on an bizarre alliance. Only mutual communication can forge an alliance with the planet's sentient species and prove that mammals are more than tools. Forced to land on a planet they aren't prepared for, human colonists rely on their limited resources to survive. The planet provides a lush but inexplicable landscape - trees offer edible, addictive fruit one day and poison the next, while the ruins of an alien race are found entwined in the roots of a strange plant. Conflicts between generations arise as they struggle to understand one another and grapple with an unknowable alien intellect.

Interference
Summary
"Narrators Caitlin Davies and Daniel Thomas May reprise their roles, and between them, they’ve once more captured the essence behind the voices of multiple characters, and even more impressively, this time there are non-humans thrown into the mix." (Bibliosanctum) Sue Burke's sweeping, award-finalist, SF Semiosis epic continues in Interference as the colonists and a team from Earth confront a new and more implacable intelligence. Over 200 years after the first colonists landed on Pax, a new set of explorers arrives from Earth on what they claim is a temporary scientific mission. But the Earthlings misunderstand the nature of the Pax settlement and its real leader. Even as Stevland attempts to protect his human tools, a more insidious enemy than the Earthlings makes itself known. Stevland is not the apex species on Pax. Semiosis duology Semiosis Interference

Semiosis
Summary
Ils sont cinquante - des femmes, des hommes de tous horizons. Ils ont définitivement quitté la Terre pour, au terme d'un voyage interstellaire de cent soixante ans, s'établir sur une planète lointaine qu'ils ont baptisée Pax. Ils ont laissé derrière eux les guerres, la pollution, l'argent, pour se rapprocher de "la nature". Tout recommencer. Construire une Utopie. Mais très vite, des drames menacent leur idéal. Du matériel irremplaçable est détruit. Des morts surviennent et s'accumulent. La nature est par essence dangereuse ; celle de Pax, mystérieuse, ne fait pas exception à la règle. Pour survivre, les colons vont devoir affronter ce qu'ils ne comprennent pas et comprendre ce qu'ils affrontent.

Immunity Index
Summary
