Hello, has anyone read this?
I've never tried science fiction. Is this a good start?

Asked this in the last thread but got no response.
Spoilers for Blindsight and Echopraxia:
Is there any evidence in Blindsight for the idea presented in Echopraxia that Siri (the Siri narrating Blindsight from his coffin) may be an alien construct? If that were the case it would mean the entire novel Blindsight was from the perspective of an alien pretending to be Siri. I just read both back to back and I don't recall anything of that nature, though I of course wasn't looking for it. Nothing stands out to me in hindsight either (not even some moment that hints to a replacement occurring), so I'm wondering if this is something the author came up with after the fact.
