For discussion of written speculative fiction. A blatant ripoff of r/printSF.

Trying to jump start this community a bit and thought sharing what we are all reading would be fun.

Recently I just finished "All These Worlds" by Dennis E. Taylor (book 3 of the bobiverse) which I enjoyed. Pulpy but that's fine by me.

I've been listening to the murderbot diaries on my commute because they were in the humble bundle recently and enjoyed those a well. Just finished "Rogue Protocol" by Martha Wells there.

Taking a short breather from prose and read "The Apocalypse War" arc of Judge Dredd. Comics still count as print sci-fi right? Been working through those chronologically alongside Strontium Dog.

I've kinda stalled on "The Dark Forest" by Liu Cixin. Just not working for me the way "The Three-Body Problem" did. Which to be honest I thought was marginal overall but when it worked it was great. Maybe just in a tough patch?

Kinda my last two weeks but who's counting. Have some long travel coming up and have some good novels picked out but that'd be spoilers for next week.

I have been really loving Matt Ruff's books this year. I started with 88 Names. Then I read Lovecraft Country - then I moved onto it's sequel The Destroyer of Worlds. Loved all of them, so now I moved on to Bad Monkeys.
