Did you ever read Dragon's Egg?
It's a speculative hard sci-fi that posits ultra-fast evolution for life on the surface crust of a neutron star!

Although I was previously recommended Rocheworld by a former NASA researcher, with the note that Robert L. Forward made every effort to describe a scientifically plausible double planet.
Incidentally, it looks like Dragon’s Egg is his only work available on Audible. I’ll add it to my list.
TIL!
Oh, looks like this movie "Evolution" ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evolution_(2001_film) ) was also on those lines then!

Also, the book does describe a character's apprehension at climbing to the dizzying heights of a few millimeters off the surface.
