Would that be The Soldier; first book in The Rise of the Jain?Just finished Toby Frost’s Space Captain Smith: End Of Empires.
Very funny and chock full of sci fi references. Well worth a read if you like a little SF comedy.
Now onto Rise Of The Soldier by Neal Asher.
I’ve been looking forward to this for a while and Neal is becoming one of my go to authors.
I've read Last Call twice and it's one of my all-time favourite books. Declare is almost up there with it (and some of the imagination/ideas are even better) but it's a bit too sprawling
Just started reading Sapkowski's saga The Witcher again and I must say it's absolutely amazing. It's such a shame the whole artistry of the author can be understand only for people who read Polish! Have anyone red it in English? Is the translation worth it?
I loved both. Wilds I'm still trying to decide was it fantasy or delusion, either way it didn't matter, it's a beautifully crafted tale that draws you in.So I finished "Waters and the Wild", which is a haunting story involving good people that takes place in a very beautiful setting. I started "Inish Carraig", which couldn't be any more different since it is a story about destitute people living in ruins with s**t eaters.
I'm finding this to be a strange pair of stories to read back to back.
a weird fixation on soldier sex lives
