Stock Posted October 10, 2023 Share Posted October 10, 2023 Finished reading 1Q84 recently, don't remember reading a series that fast since Harry Potter when I was a teenager. It was very good, loved the story and how each book had its own pace and atmosphere. Highly worth your time. Just started Erewhon right after that (because OPN) but interrupted it because I got caught in an extremely interesting, well-written but chilling essay on incest ("Ou Peut Etre Une Nuit", not sure it has been published outside of France yet).

zazen Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 (edited) "Children of Time" by Adrian Tchaikovsky is an amazing piece of sci-fi. It was published back in 2015 when it won the Arthur C Clarke award and just last week the series (of three books) won a Hugo It deals with generation ships, geoengineering, uplift of other species. The FT review said "tackles big themes—gods, messiahs, artificial intelligence, alienness—with brio." which is also a good way of summing it up. I'd never read the guys stuff before so I didn't know what to expect but it was so tense and interesting and so well crafted. The book has perhaps the most satisfying use of a "Chekhov's gun" plot point that I've ever seen. I was always really into Iain M Banks and, to me, Adrian Tchaikovsky, while different, seems to be in the same vein. Same sort of confidence - takes on big dark crazy ideas and nails them. The other two books in the series are also really good, although all three books are deliberately quite different. So there you go, "Children of Time", starting to become one of the most acclaimed sci-fi novels of the last decade.

Milwaukeeeee Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/19862742-cosmic-currency-the-greatest-wealth I have not read it, but seems interesting. The russian ambassadors supposedly gave the author a medal of Friendship in 2015, and a notable mention for that book, which was considered "best informative book" in some important russian literature contest that year I think lol. Probably Putin hasn't read it yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

usagi Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 privacy is set to become a thing of the past. even if you have been scrupulous since day one and never uploaded a picture of yourself anywhere ever, the technology has gotten so good now that you can be cross-checked and identified in an instant. and it's been out there and in secret hands for a while already. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have very fond memories of the 1Q84 trilogy. A special time in my life. For some reasons, I was expecting similar greatness from his latest, The City and Its Uncertain Walls, but it left me kind of cold. It's expanding on an older short story, and it felt quite drawn-out to me. Legions of blueberry muffins eaten and furnaces lit with not too much happening in-between. Maybe he's getting old after all ... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which ones have you read? I'm guessing The Secret Diary of Laura Palmer? There are two more recent ones by Mark Frost: The Secret History of Twin Peaks, which I really enjoyed, and Twin Peaks: The Final Dossier (haven't read it yet). Mark Frost has also written some detective novels set in Victorian London with a crossbreed of Dale Cooper and Sherlock Holmes as protagonist, The List of Seven and The Six Messiahs. It's been ages since I've read them, but I loved them at the time. Think Conan Doyle meets Alan Moore, with lots of murder, mystery and esotericism, if that's your cup of fine English. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruising for burgers Posted November 17, 2023 Share Posted November 17, 2023 (edited) do audio books count? I have them on paper but I listened to the audio instead...
