Thanks! I haven't heard of this one, but it sounds great. I'll check out his other stuff too. Definitely give anathem a reread! I'm a little envious ;)

Its a good suggestion! Thank you. I've read both blindsight and echopraxia on my quest! I think about them both quite a bit.

Ive been chasing the dragon trying to find another book that hits as good as Anathem. Beautiful, fun and philosophical beast!

She does incredible world-building. All three books are wonderful!

I'm convinced that they've met the edge of their biological intellect and asking anything more of them is akin to asking an ant to solve 2+2. Its just not going to happen.

Yep I made this mistake but luckily was able to return the phone via backmarket. Was more educated the second buy and am happy with the phone.

Great books! I have much respect for Ursula k. Le guin!

I just finished Anathem by Neal Stephenson! Man, what a banger of philosophy with a great narrative story to drive it. Wanted more space sci-fi so I'm currently reading Hyperion by Dan Simmons. Thoroughly enjoying it--intense read, though.

For what its worth, I always kind of enjoy the "kid excited about his favorite dinosaur" text writing--i find it charming when people are excited about things and read it as such!

I'm not even a car person and that sounds nice. I'd join that sub!

Ah, one of my favorite ways to exist! Hope you find some answers.

Ugh, I feel this.
