Downloaded it along with a shedload of stuff from QS so am reading it on the trusty old Palm. I have read it a few times before, and have the audio book - on tape unfortunately. But I saw the title and on a whim started reading it again.
Don't know what's next. So many choices.

Then again it was bound to happen.
We have been living in a Newtonian world for hundreds of years and he got most of it arse over tit as well.

Way too cool for mere mortals like me.
The thing is, the people who prove hime wrong will also be proven wrong it time. (Should that be space/time)
And the universe's cosmic ballet will go on.
Curently Im reading MTIV: Process, Inspiration and Practice for the New Media Designer, and HULK (IM only reading it cuz it pertains to my thread ...honest :unsure: )
Oooh, the whole "Book of the New Sun" series is very rewarding. Keep going, there will be an "Urth of the New Sun" after that, and then if you want to follow those people who went from "Urth" to colonize other worlds there's the "Book of the Long Sun" series.Quote:

Wolfe is a genius.
I'm reading "Not Without My Daughter" "Alvin Journeyman" "The Onion Girl" and a collection of short stories by Phillip K. Dick right now.
For some reason I have started reading Imajica by Clive Barker. I really donīt know why as for some stupid reason I have always assumed I wouldnīt like his writing.
I cannot explain it other than blind bigotry.
Anyway I have read the first 4 or 5 chapters and am enjoying it.
Just goes to show I suppose.
I'm reading "The biggest Secret" By David Icke.....
I recommend it - not because it will change your life, but because its an insight into the mind of a complete lune...
Speaker for the Dead by Orson Scott Card. I just finished Ender's Game last night.
Nothing at the moment... just finished Ulrikas Autobiography..... slapper in the first degree :rolleyes:
Just finished _U.S. Nuclear Weapons in Canada_ (during the Cold War).
I got a book shipment a while ago which included mostly history and fall of the former Soviet Union (ebay is great), and started a book on an Anthrax epidemic that occurred in a small Russian town due to a containment leak in a nearby bioweapons manufacturing plant (during the Cold War).
Tianup: tell us more about the Jennings stuff, where one would start to give it a shot.
Soopaman: Michael Moore is currently producing a documentary (announced shortly after he got the award for _Bowling for Columbine_) on the associations between the President Bush and bin Laden families (the Bushs are oil tycoons and apparently have a long history of exchange with various Middle Eastern aristocracies!) I'll have to search for a copy on soulseek/kazaa.
Cheers,
Minority Report - Philip K. Dick
Just finished 'the fifth elefant' from Terry Pratchett and 'Prince of the Blood' from Raymond E. Feist. :)
