I read a ton since getting a Kindle (and dumping my TV). Almost purely sci-fi.
Finished the Culture series, Hyperios Cantos, Ilium/Olympos, Book of the New sun. Gonna re-read the original 6 dune books at some point. Anything by Paolo Bacigalupi (up and coming) or Larry Niven.
- ianthiel 16y agoSeconding the dumping of the TV. I've heard nothing but good things about the Culture series so that's something I'll have to get to soon. And I can never recommend the original 6 dune books enough, simply legendary.
- latch 16y agoI'm just curious, why you wouldn't upvote me? (I don't mind, I'm just genuinely curious). It is possible you did upvote me and someone else downvoted..so apologies ahead of time if my assumptions are wrong. Culture was meh...By the 2nd or 3rd book you realize that the Culture is so powerful that nothing presents a risk. It's like Superman without Kryptonite (or his lack of pragmatism). Aside from the first book, Consider Phlebas, Excession was probably the best - largely because it focused on ships rather than people. Just my $0.02 of course.
- ianthiel 16y agoI upvoted you, not sure why someone would downvote though.
