But at least it's better written than the last few WoT novels, eh?

I'll probably be buying Superluminal by Tony Daniel on my way home tonight. Am also reading The Year of Our War by an author whose name I forget (old age catching up with me, I guess) and Sir Gawain and the Green Knight - in the Middle English, which is an unmitigated, unremitting nightmare of a task, I do not recommend the experience to anyone (Unless, of course, their grasp of Middle English is significantly superior to mine) but I am, however, going to finish the bugger even if it eventually kills me.

If an opinion contrary to your own makes you angry, that is a sign that you are subconsciously aware of having no good reason for thinking as you do. If some one maintains that two and two are five, or that Iceland is on the equator, you feel pity rather than anger, unless you know so little of arithmetic or geography that his opinion shakes your own contrary conviction. … So whenever you find yourself getting angry about a difference of opinion, be on your guard; you will probably find, on examination, that your belief is going beyond what the evidence warrants. Bertrand Russell

Finished 100 Hundred Strokes of the Brush before Bed by Melissa P.

Doesnt live up to the hype, but i have read worse. And considering that she was 17 when she wrote it, i suppose there is some time for improvement...

Now reading complicity by Iain Banks.

And now on to "What Would Jefferson Do? A Return to Democracy"

Also quite good. Was going to reread Ender's Game, but then read a whacked out political article Card wrote, and nevermind.

@Folken
One of the threads in the Bonehunters forum... the one about Laseen.

Now reading "Recursion" by Tony Ballantyne. It's pretty good so far Posted Image

Sure, so am I. I mean the Malazans had beseiged Pale at the start of GotM, but we came in to see the end of the seige. But I think it could be done...betrayal from the inside, desperate sorties, tension waiting for a relieving force to arrive, all that sort of thing. A decent writer could do it, I'm sure.
