I find it amazing and wonderful that the person who can make this:

Finished my reread of Chaos and Order. That asteroid battle at the end is so intense. I knew it was coming, but the moment when

Spoiler

Sorus turns the tables

is such a great "Hell yeah!" moment.

Oh dear I never understood the whole 'drift' theme and just posted random stuff.

Browsing because there's not enought to do at work. Taking things slow.

Grabbed A Dark and Hungry God Arising from the shelf just to browse, but found myself engrossed is the story again immediately. So now what, a complete re-read of the series? Wouldn't be the first time...

Hey, Peter Hamilton's Night's Dawn Trilogy has been rerealsed. Looks pretty. Worth reading? I see some comments about it having a very disappointing ending. I tried the first book several years ago, but didn't get too far. Sci-fi isn't my thing nearly as much as fantasy. TBH, I didn't like the endi...

I just finished Iron Council . Now I know who you are, Spiral Jacobs! :LOLS: Hey it was either this or Lorq von Ray. Oh, he I for twenty years at least have known. You a Delaney fan also are? (That my best Pleiades dialect is.) Well, not so much a fan...I just like Nova and Babel-17 a lot. I also r...

Currently re-reading Vurt by Jeff Noon. Holds some odd memories for me as when I read it originally I was breaking up with my girlfriend of the time who'd actually lent me the book. Having said that, I do love the book. Something about the story and the way it's written really clicked with me. It j...

Yup.

Finished Memoirs Found In A Bathtub . Not an easy read, but gripping and hilarious at times. I found myself grinning like a fool on the bus while listening to this (it was an audiobook). Also, the translation is amazing: I know nothing of Polish, but I've read Lem's language is difficult to translat...

I fear I need to buy the entire first and second chronicles AND the entire gap series again. I'd love a reread but I've read these books to shreds. Make tougher books Del Rey and Bantam!

Edit: or maybe I should get the e-versions...although SOME books I just like to have on the shelf.

I like Cryptonomicon a lot, even if I don't understand it all (especially the crypto).
The Baroque Cycle is simply amazing and will have to be reread one day (if time allows...)

Currently listening to Memoirs Found In A Bathtub by Stanislaw Lem.


Also, I finished AATE. Can we please have more Covenant POV in the final book?
