The Afters

 

Look at that! Such a cool design from my friend Dillon Coleman. He made the original design and will be working on the cover for book two!

Girl, he said what???
Now reading: The Hydrogen Sonata by Iain M Banks. The last culture novel! Finding a new sci-fi series to capture my imagination will be rough.
Now reading: Surface Detail by Iain M Banks. Wasn’t sure how I’d take to reading on a kindle but damn is it convenient! Only downsides: giving Bezos more money and the covers are only in black and white. Another Culture novel, but this one has a super interesting moral dilemma baked into an intergalactic conspiracy and good old fashioned revenge tale. As societies develop new technology but still believe in their old religions, many of them have invented the concept of Hell within virtual reality to torture those convicted of crimes. Of course the more enlightened civilizations view this as barbaric but are reluctant to force others to change. Fascinating stuff and boy does it get gross reading about what happens in the one particular hell we visit. #amreading #amreadingscifi #readmore #bookstagram
Coffee and cherry blossoms brighten up every day
…and sometimes showers.
Now reading: Look to Windward by Iain M Banks. Yup, another Culture novel. I’m obsessed. Super solid sci-fi. This one isn’t particularly memorable, a plot within a plot. But the strength of the book is an exploration of grief in a couple forms. An alien who has lost all meaning when he loses his life, what wouldn’t he do? An AI, haunted by its actions in a century’s old war, however justified it was. How does grief shape us, motivate us, move us to action or inaction? #amreading #amreadingscifi #bookstagram #readmore
