I didn't know until I was partway into the book, but it seems this was Baxter's first published novel.. and in the early 90's 😯 for some reason he always struck me as having started a decade earlier, it's odd.
Anyway, it *does* feel like a First Novel (compared to his later works, of which I have read many but not all), but it's nowhere near as rough as that *could* mean. 👇

I got a bunch of books on clearance, but then my dad packed them away before I could claim one or two for reading 🙃 so now you get a pic of Alex, the old man of the house.
(Tagged book is the only one whose name I remember...)

Had to finish this in a hotel room! I'll do a review later, when I'm not about to leave the hotel wifi 😅

I'm happy that this is already in the database and I don't have to turn on my PC to add it 😂 but I disapprove of the cover art it has there! That's not what the Raft looks like!! *omg nitpicking*
Here's what it should be ;D guest-starring Corvus (I told you I had more than one cat!)

This is a good book.

Probably read the first 2-3 chapters to make sure you can understand the art style, though

I went to the bookstore at my new house!(!!!) I'm not done moving yet, but nearly all of my books are in a container & my PC isn't set up yet... gotta pass the time somehow! The book under Rori is a compilation of haiku. #CatsOfLitsy #manga #scifi

So the first third of this is a postscript to the game, Diablo 3
And the rest is lists! There's a brief history of the world, the factions both major and minor with short descriptions, and a list of characters with short bios, all written ICly by Deckard Cain with notes by Tyrael.
I expect this was made for #roleplaying and #fanfic writers, haha
The cover is REALLY nice though, and it comes with a double-sided mini poster, tucked into the back.

I've never played Diablo, but my husband's a big fan of the series and I watched him play D3, so I'm not in the dark with regards to what this is about 🌠

Seeing a #Recursion tag -- but not going to this book -- is making me wish I knew where my copy was :(

edit: also *why* is the paperback $56 on amazon

I picked this up because I wanted to read something new, but not something so deep or fascinating that I felt bad for reading it while my brain wasn't working so well. SF beach fare, I guess -- something where I wouldn't feel bad if I kept glazing over at a paragraph. Anyway, this worked out well for that.

(oh, right -- #scifi )
