Holiday Wishes
Jun. 18th, 2006 01:47 pmSo a happy Father's Day to any of you Dads out there. Me I'm spending the afternoon at my grandparent's place for a bbq or something. And I think Mike is still in California...
I've been interspersing rereading the Wild Cards series with rereading the Exodium series by Dave Trowbridge & Sherwood Smith. I really can't recomend this series enough to people. Its sort of space opera. Galactic Empires at war, pirates, romance, strange alien technologies. And all built onto a background thats fully realized. The various major human cultures don't feel like just Earth cultures in space. They have a feeling of alieness to them that something set an unknown number of millenia in the future should have. Fist book in the series is called Phoenix in Flight, go track it down. This is one of the few times that I'll just recomend something across the board, no qualifiers...
