Ah! Now you're talking. "A Canticle for Leibowitz" is in my to-read pile. A couple of recent finds for me were: Vurt, by Jeff Noon Stamping Butterflies, by John Courtenay Grimwood Some long-standing faves Most of Iain M. Banks, particularly Excession Neuromancer, by Wiliam Gibson, of course The Cyberiad, by Stanislaw Lem - for quirkiness Galapagos, by Kurt Vonnegut Alex _______________________________________________ BristolBathPM mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.bristolbath.org/mailman/listinfo/bristolbathpm
