I've read and enjoyed the three you mention. I got bogged down in _Absolution Gap_ and haven't finished it yet. Maybe next year :-) > I'm also reading "A Fire Upon the Deep" by Vernor Vinge. That's very good. I recently read _Rainbow's End_ which I didn't think was as good. I'm currently reading Michael Flynn's _In The Country of the Blind_ which I bought in 1990 or so. I had read bits of it in Analog previously. I just ordered Dozois' _The Year's Best Science Fiction 25_ from Amazon.com [1] and hope to finish reading #20 this year so I'll only be five years behind on that (21, 22, 23 and 24 are on the shelf). [1] It cost £13.23 inc delivery from the USA to the UK and it costs £22.50 with free delivery from Amazon.co.uk. It takes a couple of weeks longer from the USA, but I'm not in a hurry :-) Not enough hours Maru -- William T Goodall Mail : [EMAIL PROTECTED] Web : http://www.wtgab.demon.co.uk Blog : http://radio.weblogs.com/0111221/ "I guess I would describe Serenity as a sci-fi action drama about the price of freedom.
