I loved that book. Maybe it's time to reread.

It's funny, but for books I really love, I want to own them in paper (for sentimental reasons) and ebook as well. I have two books by J. N. Stroyar, The Children's War and A Change of Regime, and wholeheartedly endorse them for anybody who's a fan of dystopian sci-fi/alternative history. The first is also at FW, and I'm going to buy it, too.

Oh, and I realize there's a separate thread devoted to this, but I'm rereading Anathem and just love it. For fans of Stephenson - I've never read anything else of his; how likely is it that I'll love his other books, if I like this one? My husband has read a few and thinks Anathem is quite different from his earlier works.
