I go through phases - sometimes I'm bingeing science fiction or fantasy, sometimes it's classical literature like Moby Dick or Don Quixote. My tastes have historically been pretty dude-centric (Tom Robbins, Cormac McCarthy, Thom McGuane, Hemingway, Steinbeck) but I'm working on that.

What a tremendous combination of modern technology and the best kind of sparse detective story. There were a couple of editorial choices that I found jarring, but otherwise just loved the story. I could see Philip Marlowe getting caught up in this kind of thing, he just didn't have Signal and Tor at his disposal.

Can't wait for the next one!
