- sorokod 7y agoCryptonomicon, should be easier.
- rtkwe 7y agoCan't wait for the whole episode dedicated to Lawrence's musings on the importance of reliable access to prostitutes for cracking ciphers and the international female conspiracy to control ejaculation and thus the mood of the world.
- sorokod 7y agoSociety will benefit more from the cereal eating discussion.
- rmbryan 7y agoOh, yeah. As amazing as the Baroque Cycle Movie or series could be, or Cryptonomicon, or Diamond Age, etc... I'd vote for Seveneves over everything else.
- arethuza 7y agoThere was supposed to be a Ron Howard directed version of Seveneves but I think it's been on hold for a few years.
- jtms 7y agoSeveneves has been in my reading queue for quite awhile... I think I might go ahead and move it to the top of the stack. Thanks for posting this!
- moultano 7y agoOne of the best books I've read in years. If you have any space-geek in you, you won't regret it.
- avian 7y agoTo be honest, I found it long and depressing. It must be something about this theme of the demise of society and space exploration that gets me. Same with Baxter's NASA trilogy. His early novels, like Snowcrash and Diamond age, are amazing, but Seveneves is really quite a different kind of a story.
- jtms 7y agoOh I’m full on space geek! I’ll start ASAP
- Herrin 7y agoI would love to see Anathem as a 3 season animated series.
