The original series started off dystopian, but the first prequel novel is instead post-apocalyptic, and that may have affected your response to it. Last edited by scrapking; 03-17-2012 at 09:24 PM. |

Beyond that, I'm philosophical. The original books were absolutely huge, much larger than the average novel that agency publishers charge $8.99 for. These will be larger than that, and cheaper than that, and all of them with new content. |

I don't remember being irritated by a Kennedy showing up. As I recall, now that you've drawn my attention to it, the way he was used in the story was kind of interesting. |

The second prequel volume to Chung Kuo, "Daylight on Iron Mountain", is now available on Kobo outside the UK (well, at least it is for me now in Canada): http://www.kobobooks.com/ebook/Dayli...4CtaYLKmfQ&r=1
Still non-agency and available for use with Kobo's discount codes, such as the ones listed here: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...discount+codes Last edited by scrapking; 05-23-2012 at 11:23 PM. |
