Cryptonomicon Complex and interesting novel relating World War II Enigma
cryptography with modern-day Web technology. Excellent writing as always, good story.
Long.
Mindstar
Rising An SF detective / adventure novel. Nearly
cyberpunk in style. Hamilton does a really good job in my opinion.
A
Quantum Murder The sequel to Mindstar Rising. The thing I
like about this series is that the good guys win conclusively. Escapist, I told you.
Triplanetary
: A Tale of Cosmic Adventure (Smith, E. E. History of Civilization, V. 1.) The Lensman series is being reprinted this year, by Old Earth Books.
This original space opera, copyright 1948, was one of the old SF novels that set me
on the road to technology as a profession. Not to mention righting the wrongs of the
universe through superior mental power.
First
Lensman (Smith, E. E. History of Civilization, V. 2.) This is the second volume in the series ... there are four more
coming out this year. Great vintage stuff if you can stand the old space opera
style.
