One more book finished - Greg Egan's Incandescence.

Not entirely sure about ths one. Egan's always mixed science with his fiction and, in this case, the science isn't of a nature that immediately grabs me (unlike, say, Permutation City or Quarantine).

That's not entirely why I found it unsatisfying, though - the two narrative strands didn't end in quite the way I was expecting, and I'm not entirely sure that the resolution is one that really works as an ending for me.

Hmm. Might need to sleep on that one, though - Egan's novels do sometimes need a little post-book thought...

I need to get back into reading! I've read one Greg Egan book which was quite good, i think, bit too long ago! I should probably read books I have lying around before getting new stuff though!

Have you ready any of Hal Duncan's books?
