I love Vinge! "Fire Upon the Deep" was
excellent....very creative. I rate him up there with David Zindell and his
"Neverness", The Wild, and The Broken God.

Subject: o.t. READING
what has everyone been reading of late? a
wonderful book that i finished a bit ago "CLOUD ATLAS" by david
mitchel, i highly recommend, (mr peters, i think you would really enjoy
this).....i'm reading now "SACRED GAMES" by vikram chandra, a story of an
indian detective in bombay, great insite into indian culture.....i'm waiting
for the fifth book by george r.r. martin in his A SONG OF ICE AND FIRE
series, sort of an adult sword and sorcery story, some neat ideas in this
group of books.....i can not remember who wrote it but "THE STORY OF PI" was
a delight.....nothing heavy but all fun stuff.....add to this, a re-reading
of all my equipment manuals.....someone wrote last week that true happiness
can begin after killing one's t.v., i'm ready, the so called entertainement
is sad and the news and weather is overwhelmingly depressing (wtf is going
on?????).....i always get a great reading list when this question is asked
so thnaks in
advance.....michael
