"Children of Time (Children of Time, 1)" by Adrian Tchaikovsky
https://www.amazon.com/Children-Time-Adrian-Tchaikovsky/dp/0316452505/

Book number one of a three book science fiction apocalyptic series. I
read the well printed and well bound trade paperback published by Tor in
2015 in the UK and by Orbit in 2018 in the USA. I have purchased the
second book in the series and will read it soon.

This story in set in the far, far distant future. Maybe 10,000 years in
the future. Maybe 50,000 years in the future. The first rise and fall
of humanity on Earth resulted in hundreds of colony planets across the
galaxy, all colonized via sleeper ships traveling at near light speed.

The second rise and fall of humanity on Earth resulted in the Gilgamesh,
a huge ark ship of a half million survivors sleeping their way to the
one of the former colony worlds. But when they get to the colony world,
it is protected by a very hostile heavily armed space station dating
back to the first rise of humanity with unknown technologies.

My rating: 4.4 out of 5 stars
Amazon rating: 4.5 out of 5 stars (41,006 reviews)
