The Children of the Sky is a science fiction novel by American writer Vernor Vinge. It is a direct sequel to A Fire Upon the Deep and shares the Zones of Thought universe with A Deepness in the Sky. Unlike A Fire Upon the Deep, the novel is set completely on the Tines' world. It was nominated for the 2012 Locus Award for Best Science Fiction Novel and the Prometheus Award.
This was exactly what I wanted in a sequel, lots of time with the characters I loved. I really hope that Vernor Vinge is planning a third book, because the story isn't over yet.
