Just started The Masks of Time by Silverberg. This is an oldie from 1968, reissued in 2002 by Gollancz under their Collectors Editions strand. It seems it was originally titled Vornan 19, which is the name of the character that appears out of nowhere on Christmas Day 1998,claiming to be from a thousand years in the future.

As I've almost finished Line of Polity, I'll be moving onto Brass Man. These books are frustratingly difficult to find in the US. I have Gridlinked and Brass Man, but unless I luck at the bookstore all the rest are going to be library books. Which is bad because they don't have a copy of the last one, Line War. Time to head to abebooks...

brightcopy, have you tried Book Depository? That's where I got some of Asher's less available works, and they have free shipping worldwide.

4> Excellent! The free shipping really clinches the deal. Thanks so much for the pointer. Dang, they only have the paperback. Maybe I'll get it and donate it to the library when I get the hardback so they'll have the full set. I'm really digging Neal Asher.

Brightcopy, some of Asher's later works haven't been published in the US. He is published by TOR - but it is often TOR UK. I have had to import the last couple from the Book Depository (didn't check for used).

So far this month I have read Virtual Light by William Gibson, the first book in the Bridge Trilogy, and have started the sequel, Idoru.
I really enjoyed VL, and can't belive that it had been on my shelf for over 5 years before I got round to reading it. It did seem to come to a dead stop at the end. I really prefer books to round the story off a bit better.

"I'm reading The Dispossessed by Ursula Le Guin."
One of my favourite books which is weird in that it is quite dry and didactic at times. The cultural and psychological struggles of the protagonist Shevek just really fascinate me.

I'm page ~150 of House of Suns, by Alastair Reynolds. I like it, but I'm not sure how much I like it. Reynolds has done some mind-bending world-building, and I get bogged down simply trying to visualize what he is trying to show me. (This is my first Alastair Reynolds book.)

There is a SF Group Read site on LT here: (http://www.librarything.com/groups/groupreadsscifi) where we have, in fact, read and discussed "Last and First Men". If you wish, feel free to contribute your thoughts in the related thread because quite a few people have read the book.
Speaking of the "SF Group Read" group, is anyone interested in reviving the group? We didn't get many responses for the last book (twenty-four and counting), but perhaps a few months break from the group read might have made people slightly more eager for another book?
Sorry about the above posts - my internet connection seems to be playing up.

25: Alastair Reynolds is a writer I wish I liked. The plot synopses of his books always sound like they're just the sort of thing I'd like, and yet I have a terrible time actually finishing any of his books. The two I finished were a very slow slog, and I've given up on four others. I can't exactly put my finger on what's wrong, they're just glacially slow and I'm never enjoying them enough to be worth the slog. Which is too bad, because I want to like his writing.

Just finished cataloguing both of those. Did a bit of reading about the CoDominium to try and get my series tagging correct, and there is some opinion that Exiles to Glory (which I don't have) might come between those two works. Of course, there are other opinions (follow the link to 'Gorbachev and "High Justice"') that neither High Justice nor Exiles to Glory fall within the CoDominium Universe.

#30 The first Reynolds book I read was tough for me as well, but then I guess I "got in the groove" as all the subsequent books ended up being very good reads. Part of the problem is he tends not to explain things until later in the book, preferring to concentrate on the action and plot sequences. Ian Banks tends to do similar but has faster pacing.
34iansales
Must admit I'm a big fan of Reynolds, and have all his books. Never found them especially slow - if anything, he has a tendency to speed up towards the end, and the pacing can be a little uneven.

I agree with the slow slog on Reynolds, but they are also enjoyable.

I finished Blindsight by Peter Watts and it is the first book I've read in several years (including Greg Egan's works) that has *so* much jargon that I have given up trying to understand the exact meaning of the events that are occurring, or the ideas and discussions that are covered in the writing, and instead simply ignore them and try to follow the plot to its conclusion. Many of the ideas eventually begin to take hold, though, and I found them fascinating. About four stars. Recommended for hearty, dedicated SF veterans that can handle a cast of unfortunate, bloodless characters. Whatever that means. Finally beginning to read Trouble and Her Friends by Melissa Scott.

I'm reading The Keep by F. Paul Wilson, a horror set in Romania in 1941,from the view of the German army.
42cosmicdolphin
40+41:
The Keep is an enjoyable book.
The Movie is a Stinker though. The First 20 minutes are just fine and it has that awesome Tangerine Dream Soundtrack. But Michael Mann really screwed up that movie, and he knows it, won't have anything to do with the film.
Shame it's not available on a real DVD, only bootleg though. They nearly put it out as a Vanilla DVD a few years back, F. Paul Wilson had two comedians record a commentary that he was going to issue himself in protest at the Vanilla release.
Both the Movie and the Soundtrack seem to have legal issues surrounding them, thus no real release since the Laser Disc.

Nominations work by all interested people on the group listing the books they would like to read for the next group read (within reason - don't nominate your entire TBR list). After a week or two, group members then choose to second one book from the list they did not nominate. The top five books (more if there is a tie) go to a poll, the winner becoming the next book that the group reads.
Oh, and Einhorn, feel free to contribute your thoughts to the discussion of "Last and First Men".

I finished up The Vor Game by L M Bujold a couple days ago. Liked it well enough but found it not a terribly strong novel. It perhaps has too many echoes of The Warrior's Apprentice but it benefits from a cast of characters that includes some from the prior work, although mostly in limited ways. I liked getting a better handle on the emperor Gregor here. I'll certainly be reading more in the Vorkosigan saga.

I'm sure a lot of us will continue with the group read. The problem I had was that a number of the books I had recently reread a few months before the group read so didn't want to spend time reading them again. I think the best way forward is to start a new thread in the SF Group Read group and see who bites.

Finished Look at the Birdie recently, "Unpublished Short Fiction" by Kurt Vonnegut. I think most of these stories come from a time before he published his novels-with their characteristic "twisted", usually humorous, style that became his trademark. I glean this from the Foreword by author Sidney Offit who does not state that categorically but gives background on Vonnegut's short stories for magazines which preceded his novels.
All the stories are extremely clever and seem to have a "moral" or positive lesson to make. Maybe this is the post World War II attitude of the 1950's that fit the literary market of the times - the forward mentions Vonnegut musing over whether/how to tailor his shorts to the market.
Vonnegut fans will like this I think, these are all solid publishable stories that hold their own and some show the development of Vonnegut's style and dance back & forth over the line between SF or other fiction.

Finally got around to finishing up Titans of Chaos; 'B' for the book, 'A' for the series. As much as I enjoyed the whole I'm not sure that Wright needed nine-hundred pages to tell this story. While the conceit that each of the five demigods who are the heroes of the book have to use their different powers in concert to gain results is cool, the overall concept becomes ponderous over time; sort of like a long-running RPG campaign where the characters have achieved so many levels that it takes forever to get through one turn.
72DugsBooks
#69 Moon. Odd, I had just the opposite reaction. Snow Crash was one of the first books I read when I started reading SF again and I thought it was a monumental & entertaining work- better than Johnny Mnemonic by Gibson which was all the rage then.
I eagerly picked up Quicksilver to read and even though I like shiny things I could not finish the book. I think descriptions, spanning entire pages, of the clothes people were wearing threw me off the most. Maybe I will try again some day.
