Killing Gravity | Corey J. White

Sci-fi cyberpunk. A short fun ride, although the hectic pace makes some bits of the narrative feel squashed and in need of more room to breathe. Looking forward to the next installment.

Altered Carbon | Richard Morgan

A cracking read, really unputdownable. Had a very different feel to it than the TV series - Kovacs is less of a cipher and feels more human, and medium allows more a deep dive into things only mentioned in the show. Definitely going to look into the rest of the series.

On second thought, let's not go to Terra. It is a silly place.

The outer solar system is extremely dangerous and twins are confusing.

Curse of the Wulfen | David Annandale

Eighty percent of the words in this book are "wolf". Also weirdly short sentences throughout, felt very different from how Annandale normally writes.

Three-Body Problem | Cixin Liu

Opens with a weirdly sexual description of a girl's body being riddled with bullets so uh thinking this is going to be a strange one.

Like 90% unrelated to the series itself and also 90% totally unremarkable compared to other stuff written by dabnett.

Echopraxia | Peter Watts

"The “transactive memory system” called Google is already rewiring the parts of our brains that used to remember facts locally; now those circuits store search protocols for remote access of a distributed database."

Dogs are always going to come up short if you insist on defining them as a weird kind of cat.

The Silmarillion | J.R.R. Tolkien

Expected Lord of the Rings but with more mythicalness, received allegorical tale about the universe being sang into reality. A+ would venerate Eru again
