At the rate YOU read you should be starting AATE on Monday!

Hahaha, which could be tricky, since I suspect it won't arrive in SA for maybe 6 months.

Perhaps I should squeeze in a reread of Erikson and Jordan first.

Just started on Matter by Iain M Banks. No doubt I'm gonna enjoy this book as usual.

Just finished 'AATE', right after 'Considering Phlebas'.

How's "Considering Phlebas?" Are there lots of drowned Phonecians?

After reading it I got very curious about the title, having no previous experience with the poem from which it is lifted. Some searching online solved that.

Still, I've enjoyed the book quite a bit. Reminiscent of the Gap, certainly in the exquisite plotting of the climax.

I loved Consider Phlebas (and it is Consider, not Considering) slugging through AATE with my eye on Bakker's The Judging Eye...

I've read some of his Thieves World anthologies and enjoyed them. He's dead now though.

Apart from Banks' Matter I'm now also listening to House of Suns by Alastair Reynolds on the bicycle.
Fun fact: Reynolds lived in the Netherlands for several years.

Im loving on Scalzi lately. Old Mans War was also really amazing.
