[disillusioned]

Adrian Tchaikovsky's Children of Ruin gets into the cephalopod-human communication challenges rather magnificently, if you're looking for a remarkable hard scifi read, though you have to go through the (also great) Children of Time start of the series.

[2000UltraDeluxe]

Both are excellent books, worth a read.

Finished Children of Time two weeks ago. Now I want to be a spider.
