 Okay, it's time to talk about February, what I've been doing, what I'm planning. I've got a couple of books here that I checked out at the library this week. So Arthur Conan Doyle's Lost World, I've never read it. Looking forward to it. And Fire Ship by Joan D. Vinge. This was not one that I had specifically heard about, but I've not read a lot of Joan Vinge. So I'm looking forward to that. You saw this on the Tumblr, Jagged Orbit by John Brunner. Don't know much about John Brunner, don't know about this book, but I saw it on the shelf here locally and it looked interesting. The Book of Merlin. Got this on the for sale shelf at the local library. I don't really know anything about T. H. White's King Arthur series. This is what the Disney film Sword and the Stone was based on. This is apparently the last book that was published many years after the original series. I'll give it a look at some point. Just got this in this week, Saturn's Children by Charles Strauss. I've heard the name Charles Strauss, I've never read any of his stuff. This book was recommended as alternatives to 50 Shades of Grey, of all things. I saw this in a link that was posted by Veronica Belmont. Apparently this book is about in the distant future a sex robot that has to learn how to survive in a world that has no humans in it when she's programmed to be appealing to humans. Unfortunately that same list also recommended The Sleeping Beauty series by Ann Rice, which you heard me talk about in my last book tag. Those are not good books. Unfortunately they were recommending it when those are not good books. 2001 Space Odyssey, I got this 1968 book club edition a couple of weeks ago. You probably saw it on the Tumblr. I just finished reading it. I read it when I was in fifth or sixth grade. It's been since then and there were parts of it that I remembered clearly but most of it I didn't. It's a surprisingly short book and surprising in general because most people are familiar with the movie but of course haven't read the book. You should. It has some significant and illuminating differences. I also got these locally, the first two sequels, 2010 and 2061. I decided that for book review number 100 I'm going to do 2001 and then talk about the book and the movie and the comics and the franchise in general and then go on to do this one then this one and then talk about that disaster called 3001 Final Odyssey. So you already know how I feel about it. I also acquired some vintage comics from the 80s that I'm going to talk about at some point. Megaton Man, Border Worlds, which is a straight up science fiction independent series from the 80s and Strangers in Paradise. I'll recommend in odd comics at some point and look for this in the next few days Blanche Goes to New York. That's about it for this monthly update. Again, you can support what I'm doing here both the science fiction book reviews and the odd comics and all my other projects by becoming a patron. There's a link in the description below. See you next time.
