I'm reading Orlando Figes's take on the Russian Revolution which is a whopping 1000 odd pages. Should keep me occupied for a week!

Shadow is almost an equal book as Ender's Game....esp if you really liked Bean as a character

Awesome, just as predicted. 8.5/10

Could have been better, but it was true to the series and had some great development.

Yeah my friend in question seems to think that Bean was in fact superior to Ender in every way. I just don't see it.

i agree with your friend....although i like Ender as a character more

Well guys, I've got a stack of books waiting for me, but they're all nonfiction. I'm in one of my rare moods when I want to read scifi or fantasy. All suggestions welcome, but I'd prefer low fantasy that's light on the magic shenanigans and heavy on characterization. I'm fine with pretty much all scifi.

Oh shit, it finally came out, I've been anticipating this book since 2008. Good thing it's up on torrents in the ePub format that helps remove idiotic archaic restrictions like this.

damn you people!....i am loving this :)

Right?? I didnt even know it was out until last night, I googled him to see if he was coming out with anything new and found out it'd already come out. I'm so excited.

Eccentric Spaces, not sure about this book yet but it is about how the human imagination has inhabited the spaces it has built for itself over the course of human history.


And another book called the Conscience of the Eye by Richard Sennett. Its about how the human subconscious has reacted to and built and designed the world around us. The book is mostly negative about how our architecture works and usually begins it's chapters with a polemical assertion, that modern cities are bland and monotonous. Its a pretty mind ****ing book.
