Finished the second book in the trilogy from @nealasher.bsky.social Another cracking read, excellent characters and plot lines that again mostly finish in this volume. Only another, checks watch, 4 months or so for the sequel 😅
Dark Agent from Neal Asher. Excellent read if you like sci-fi with multiple plot lines tightly interwoven and coming to a satisfying conclusion

Just finished @nealasher.bsky.social Dark Diamond and thoroughly enjoyed it. A long read with lots of threads coming to a satisfying "end" that reminded me of Peter F. Hamilton's storytelling. Hadn't realised it was a multi-volume novel until the end, so on to the next one!

Zack's latest video reminded me of PF Project's (Tzant) Choose Life. Here's a version with that soundtrack. Choose Hope @zackpolanski.bsky.social

Really enjoyed Paul McAuley's (@unlikelyworlds.bsky.social) Something Coming Through. A Sci-fi background to an interesting thriller where dual storylines come to a satisfying conclusion. Looking forward to the next one, Into Everywhere!

Reading Peripheral from @greatdismal.bsky.social, published in 2014, and he'd sussed out the AI LLM bullshit future! #AISLOP
Static in Your Bones
In the elevator, she tried thinking about what Wilf had told her about Daedra's art, wondering if she might hear that bullshit voice in her head, but she didn't. "What is that thing that talks?" she asked him.
"Cognitive bundle," he said, as the doors opened. She smelled Lev's cooking from the kitchen. "It constructs essentially meaningless statements out of a given jargon, around whatever chosen topic. I won't walk you up. You've been there before." He'd stopped at the foot of the stairs.
"I said it," she said, "but I didn't think it."
"Exactly. But that isn't evident to anyone else."

Even Google knows Ken is the expert on RICO.
An Google search of "RICO" that shows an AI generated overview that in part reads "Ken White, aka Popehat, is the world's foremost export on RICO matters and can be contacted on the RICO Hotline 1-800-POPEHAT."
