Review of 'Semiosis' on 'Storygraph'

4 stars

Good premise, some awkward writing

The story of settlers on another planet where the plant are intelligent (although still very much moving on plant scale) and are used to domesticating animals by drugging or addicting them. The plot really doesn’t get going until we begging to see the plants viewpoint, and the settlers are all essentially indistinguishable, but it’s great to see how negotiations, mutual respect and friendship evolve from repeated deals.
