I just got and finished To A Distant Day, by Chris Gainor, book three of the Outward Odyssey series, published by U-Nebraska Press. The series is about the history of human space exploration, and this entry details the history of rocketry, which is facinating.
Prior to that, I finished the first book of Vatta's War, Trading in Danger, which was okay, not great. Currently working my way through Nancy Kress's last entry in the Probability trilogy, Probability Space, which is okay so far, but not as good as the others.
In addition to that, I've started my readings for my master's degree. Woo.

    Halting State by Charles Stross. I'm liking it so far. (I'm about halfway through). The second-person viewpont takes a bit of getting used to, but I think it works for this story (so far, anyway).

    Among many others tongue The Sweet Far Thing by Libba Bray. It's the last in a trilofy I've been reading for a while. Not that great so far, but I love the title (especially since she puts the poem it came from in the front).

    I'm reading a lot of stuff, Star Wars LOTF, Dresden Files and Codex Alera series by Jim Butcher. If I list any more someone may think that I'm insane.

    So I have the first two The Invisibles TPBs. Now I did enjoy Morrison's New X-Men stuff. However I'm suffering a major Raven right now. Not really clicking with me at this moment honestly. Might give it one more try to see if I still want to continue.
