Neal Stephenson's new book SEVENEVES (it might be SEVEN EVES) is very good. Very good hard science science fiction of the type I most enjoy.

Typical Neal: he loves the hard science thing and he has done a LOT of research and he is real keen to tell you about it. Decent story (ITS THE END OF THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT) and some great ideas which presumably are rooted in near-future do-ability. the space elevators and the space bolo thingys are brilliant. and the airtrains.

anyway: if you like his other stuff (and why wouldn't you?) then you will likely enjoy this too.

Tuesdays with Morrie by Mitch Albom.

I'm reading Excession, again. Iain M Banks. May he rest in peace with whiskey.

OCP... "The usual example given to illustrate an Outside Context Problem was imagining you were a tribe on a largish, fertile island; you'd tamed the land, invented the wheel or writing or whatever, the neighbors were cooperative or enslaved but at any rate peaceful and you were busy raising temples to yourself with all the excess productive capacity you had, you were in a position of near-absolute power and control which your hallowed ancestors could hardly have dreamed of and the whole situation was just running along nicely like a canoe on wet grass... when suddenly this bristling lump of iron appears sailless and trailing steam in the bay and these guys carrying long funny-looking sticks come ashore and announce you've just been discovered, you're all subjects of the Emperor now, he's keen on presents called tax and these bright-eyed holy men would like a word with your priests."

Wiki sums it up better than me.

Great Sci fi.

stark, by ben elton.

A not-so pisstake about how jews are fucking up the planet. Hilariously delivered. But much saddening at the same time.

"The Girl in the Spiders Web", the new entry in the Millenium trilogy. Which makes it a four book trilogy, but Spike Milligan already did one of those so...
"Make Me", the latest Jack Reacher. OK I'm shallow.

Currently reading "Being There" by Hugh Anderson. (Back to reality - and motorcycling.)

Then "Willie Nelson".

CASH the Johnny Cash biography by Robert Hilburn.

I'm a fan so I am enjoying it. I'm up to around 1956 57 when he is starting to make it big.

I read Ben Aaronovitch's Rivers of London - then went back to the library and cleaned the shelves of all his books in that series. Diana Gabaldon wrote - ''What if Harry Potter grew up and joined the fuzz?'' He has written some Dr Who episodes - magic and British humour.

The girls of the family read Diana Gabaldon, they are very much into her, but much laughing and critisism of her Americanisms.

Whats up with Jack Reacher? The violence is just not there anymore.

[Motu]

They've had to downsize him to Tom Cruise stature, a short arse just can't do Jack Reacher stuff. Has anyone seen the movie? I'm too scared to look, when I read Jack Reacher, I just don't see Tom there. I read one last week, forget what it was called, but an earliier one.

Just finished "The long Utopia" part of a four book series by Terry Pratchett and Stepehn Baxter, can't say I liked it as much the the first two

Just started Greg Bear's "City at the end of time" and finding it pretty hard going to point I am not sure I will continue with it
