Out on Blue Six

Cover for Out on Blue Six

Review:

Had a bit of a hard time fin­ish­ing the book. At a cer­tain point around 2/3rds of the way in the lan­guage got just too flow­ery and psy­chodel­ic.

In any case, it's pret­ty good!

The Bone Clocks

Cover for The Bone Clocks

Review:

So good.

The au­thor has a great ear for the tone of a time and place. The end is pret­ty heart­break­ing.

The Rise and Fall of D.O.D.O. (D.O.D.O. #1)

Cover for The Rise and Fall of D.O.D.O. (D.O.D.O. #1)

Review:

Best Stephen­son in years.

Looks like hav­ing Nicole Gal­land as a co-au­thor has done won­der­s.

Plot is tighter, writ­ing is even, and the book even has an end­ing! Yes, an ac­tu­al end­ing!

So this is prob­a­bly more of a Gal­land book? I need to read more of what she has writ­ten.
