starting a new author (for me) and a new series;
The Kill Artist by Daniel Silva
also, a kind author's wife sent me a copy of:
Electronic Echoes of the Mind by Wade Kimberlin; thanks a bunch to
BookStop
also continuing the
Three Californias trilogy by Kim Stanley Robinson; going to reread
On the Beach by Nevil Shute (it's been too many years since I've read it); and finally breaking down and opening up
Titus Groan by Mervyn Peake.
