I put 'novel' in quotes because it's a really weird novel.
- giraffe_lady 3y agoA lot of novels are weird. It's straightforwardly a novel you don't need to put it in quotes.
- detritus 3y agoMore that it's a weird form of treatise with the mereset semblance of a coherent novel intertwined within it to encourage people to read it.
- blacksmith_tb 3y agoA novel novel, got it. I actually thought it was a pretty straightforward read, but to each their own. According to the novel Termination Shock it could just take an eccentric billionaire to launch a geoengineering effort like that (though with some blowback from state actors) - of course there aren't any of those around, so that's clearly fiction...
- ericmay 3y agoJust as a digression I thought Ministry for the Future was a far better book than Termination Shock was.
