New Reading

October 29th, 2009

Most of my reading for the last six months has been of a technical nature. Interesting but boring.

Recently I have dedicated some time to read something fun, so I picked up Neuromancer and The Moon is a Harsh Mistress. Two books by greats of the science fiction genre that I had never read before. Neuromancer is an awesome tale that pretty much created the cyberpunk genre, and I found it very enjoyable. It is somewhat old, but has held up pretty well with time. The Moon is a Harsh Mistress is a story of libertarian revolution on the moon, which is of course right up my alley. It is even older, but has been a great read so far.

I hope to put up reviews of both of these soon, and will probably hit up one of the books on the top one hundred list next. It is nice to get a chance to read some good adventure again!

    The Moon is a Harsh Mistress is simply awesome.

    Covered in awesomesauce, with whipped cream and a cherry.

    After you read it, I recommend listening to the Audible recorded version. It adds a HUGE new element to the experience.

    I am almost done with the book. I will get the audio version, looking for stuff to listen to on my new 40 mile commute.

    Finished Moon. It is now in my top five. I love this book! Looking forward to listening to the audio version.

    If you go for the Audible version, the narration is really great. Hearing Mannies accent done like that… perfect.
