Rainbows End by Vernor Vinge
Twilight's Last Gleaming by John Michael Greer
The Peshawar Lancers by S.M. Stirling
The Bone Clocks by David Mitchell One of the 6 sections is in 2025.
OK, time for an update.Just finished:
- Death's Door by James R. Benn (My last of '24 -- Another good WW2 crime/historical read.)
- Tin Cans and Greyhounds: The Destroyers that Won Two World Wars by Clint Johnson (My first of '25 -- Pretty much what the title says.)
Both solid 4 star reads for me.
Now reading:
- Anathem by Neal Stephenson (ebook)
- The Ministry of Time by Kaliane Bradley (Audio)
With the wildfires hitting Pasadena, there's still time for Parable of the Sower to come true.
