BOOK Wrap-up
Wind-up Girl by Paolo Bacigalupi
NEW BOOK!
BARE YOUR SWORD – feedback from the audience
Cannot finish. Will not finish
The Blade Itself – thoughts on this book?
Last man on earth / post apoc book
Emails:
Stephen Baxter has a tendency to destroy the Earth in a number of his books. Notably:
Moonseed – Earth wiped out completely starting in the opening scene.
Evolution – Human evolution from triumph of mammals to the end of humanity (Earth survives, people don’t)
Flood – All land gone. Some humans survive.
He’s one of my favourite “Laser” authors and well worth reading.
