After reading Idiot / Savant’s reminder of Charlie Stross, I thought I’d better get hold of a few of his books. And that’s what I’ve been doing during the last week.

First The Atrocity Archive, a sort of spy thriller meets Cthulhu sort of thing – most entertaining. Then Singularity Sky, quite a good high-tech space yarn which defies a one line review (think Banks & MacLeod – harder than Banks, but funnier than MacLeod). And now I’m halfway through Iron Sunrise, the sequel to Singularity Sky.

I’d rabbit on about these great books a bit more, but frankly all I want to do right now is continue reading. And there’s a whole lot more to go on Stross’s website. (And looking up the links to the books above finds me a new China Miéville novel. Let’s check out the library catalog and place a reserve right now…)

    just thought I should follow up a little with you post on my own blog. Thanks a ton for posting something for one, it's nice to hear back from people that use it or have been looking for it, quite alot of work has gone into getting it prepped and some pretty major revisions were neccessary. Anyways, if you have any comments or suggestions for the future of Whitehart... contact me and I'm always happy to work on finding a solution. Thanks! Anders

    Thanks Anders - I'll keep an eye on your site. I am very happy to see Whitehart being taken forward. It's a great no-nonsense browser theme.
