I have always enjoyed re-reading and never understood that there are people who don't. I re-read more when I was a child, though. Of course I had more time on my hands then, and there were never enough books in the house. Nowadays, my TBR keeps growing and I find myself unable to keep pace. But it's not a reason to not re-read favorite books at all.

That's what I plan to do. I have most of the ebooks which came with the Cryoburn CD, but my problem is that I seem to be stuck in the middle of The Vor Game for about a year now. That's why I thought it might be a good idea to get myself some of the early audiobooks to rekindle my interest in the series.

Earlier this evening, I listened to an episode of the Lightspeed Magazine podcast: Eight Episodes by Robert Reed.

Wow. I really enjoyed that one. Perhaps I should add that I absolutely love well written stories with paleontological themes. This one had both paleontology and aliens.
