Transmigration was badass. Now for some lighter fare: Corsair (Oregon Files) by Clive Cussler.

I began turning pages in William Gibson's "Pattern Recognition " last night. I read his book "Neoromancer" in a Science Fiction class I took in undergrad and really enjoyed that. We'll see how this one is.

You should really finish up the Sprawl Trilogy if you liked Neuromancer. Count Zero and Mona Lisa Overdrive are the other two. Highly recommended.

I did 2g of B+ lemon tea on sunday. mid trip I get this overwhelmingly strong desire to re-read a childhood favourite:
I got through the whole thing in one sitting. Every comic is a philosophical question or debate or sometimes just plain funny. I teared up a bit from it.
Thank you Bill.

has anyone ever read Blood Music by Greg Bear? It is the most memorable book that I read in the last 15 years. I personally find the story amazing, and every time I read it I like it more.
right now, I'm reading Philip K Dick's exegesis
