Here’s what I’ve read recently…

Pastwatch: The Redemption of Christopher Columbus, by Orson Scott Card. I don’t love all of his books, but I loved this one. A scientist attempts to alter the past to spare humanity from the tragedy of bloodshed and brutality stemming from Columbus discovering the new world.

The Covenant of Genesis, by Andy McDermott. It didn’t suck, but it bent the readers’ suspension of disbelief to the breaking point and was pretty trite at times. I do not recommend.

On The Origins of Joy Boy’s Chasm, by Liam James Leaven. A crazy, quirky, and  humorous novel written by a blogging friend. I absolutely loved it.

Here’s what I’m currently reading…

Three Days to Never, by Tim Powers. Great pretext for a supernatural/sci-fi thriller: a scientific discovery that Einstein chose to not reveal, and now all the powers are after it, including the Israeli secret service and an ancient European cabal of occultists. But it is executed a bit awkwardly; it doesn’t flow well and is hard to follow at times.

The Road to Serfdom (The Definitive Edition), by F. A. Hayek. A true classic on political and economic philosophy.

Here’s what I hope to read soon…

Slaughterhouse Five, by Kurt Vonnegut. It’s next in my to-read stack, so I will soon rectify my crime against literature of having not yet read this masterpiece.

The Fatal Conceit, by F. A. Hayek.

Under the Dome, by Stephen King. Really looking forward to this one.

Changes, the latest Harry Dresden novel, by Jim Butcher. I LOVE this series. Horror, sci-fi, and humor, all in one.

Fever Dream, the latest novel by Lincoln and Child.

From Eternity to Here: The Quest for the Ultimate Theory of Time, by Sean Carroll.

Up Jim River, by Michael Flynn. TJIC recommended it so it must be good, because TJIC likes Heinlein. (Bonus points: what fallacy did I just commit?)
