Hey, I haven't read any of the Uplift series yet! Spoiler space is necessary
if it's not clear from the subject that you are discussing key points about
a particular book.
On another note, I can say that I am no longer a Brin virgin as I read _Kiln
People_ (that apostrophe in the UK edition is just annoying) a couple of
months ago. Ritu recommended _Earth_ as her favourite Brin book so I'm more
likely to read that before I head into the Uplift War books. That, and the
fact that I have a huge number of unread books that has become a running
joke on the Culture List, means that the Uplift War will have to wait a
little while longer but I'd still be interested in reading about it. Which
probably doesn't make sense. I need more tea.
I estimate that I'll have the first chapter analysis post of Earth done around April 15 and will plan on posting them every 4-6 weeks subsequently. That's subject to change if the project is more daunting than I think it will be.
Of course, I first have to figure out what constitutes a chapter, since they're not labelled as such. *sigh*
What kind of tea? :-) Jon
