Alastair Reynolds
I thought a collection of sci-fi short stories would
be a good break from my recent spate of presidential
non-fiction works. And it was! I certainly appreciate
the more 'hard' science nature of these stories
(Reynolds is a former astronomer, v. cool!). Thinking
about which parts particularly stuck with me; I
believe Reynolds' description of the collective
Conjoined was refreshing. This same idea has been
attempted in so many other works, but Reynolds
interpretation is satisfying. I also really enjoyed
the discussion of emergent properties in that short
story about the worms in the ice world. Excited to
read his other stuff!
