Is The Defectives(Can Ci Pin) Priest’s most underrated work?
It's 2026 and I'm JUST now reading The Defectives(Can Ci Pin )by Priest and I'm completely blown away,this was really written 8years ago?
It barely gets talked about and honestly I think it's seriously underrated.
Priest is such a visionary,especially with how fast AI has been developing these past years—if AI ever becomes fully dominant, humanity could actually be in real danger. Everything Can Ci Pin describes might not even be fiction for much longer.
Also love Gong and shou dynamic!There’s nothing like a couple that went through hell and back together.
Can Ci Ping really made me think a lot.If anyone has other good sci-fi recs pls lmk!!!
