Went to town, dinner with Jake, watched the horns... slow night.
They had an ad for capital one which begs the question 'what's in your wallet'...
In some cases, you dont want to know...

Halting StateCharles Stross Seriously twisted mix of high-finance, MMORPGs, and information security all wrapped in a classic spy/crime story. |
GlasshouseCharles Stross I love this guy's ideas. Mindwiped identity bending futurescape with a pointed take on modern times. This one's way up the recommended list. |
Iron SunriseCharles Stross Sequel to Singularity Sky - more great hard-sf from one of the absolute best in the genre. Love it. |
Pattern RecognitionWilliam Gibson Not his strongest work - a modern fiction piece with some interesting ideas but it feels disjointed somehow. |
StarfishPeter Watts Oh look, he's reading more dark hardsf... big surprise. This one brings strong psychotic-biochemistry-fu. Bring your brain |
Little BrotherCory Doctorow A modern 1984 for teens... good layman tech and a great take on the idiocy of the war on terra |
AccelerandoCharles Stross Chunky short-story format that blazes with ideas and pace. Great book. |
Singularity SkyCharles Stross Interesting SF space opera... an ideas book the way old Niven was in that the plot isnt really that important. |
The Sunrise LandsSM Stirling The 4th in a line of Silly post-apocalyptic alternate history with a goofy premise taken too far... but fun to read. |
BlindsightPeter Watts Rough and dark, but it grows on you... like a tumor. Post-gibson cyberpunk noire, the gripping hand in reverse - only really really really creepy. Dont plan on sleeping well after this one. |
The Android's DreamJohn Scalzi Pratchett/Adams as hard SF - with all the humor of both. I loved the concept of the AI - bout time someone decided to attack the Wintermute conundrum backwards. |
ThirteenRichard Morgan Not Kovacs, but interesting all the same. Dystopian take on the American political schism and where it heads - taking some old Dick ideas much further down the road. |
