whoops i just finished homeworld and realized it's the third book in the series not the first i thought it was an easy and fun read but had a weird story structure to be a first book makes sense now i guess i'll imagine the others as prequels when i read them

Finished the final book (chronologically) in the Foundation timeline. I definitely recommend reading them in the order they were published otherwise you'll miss out on the sense of betrayal from being repeatedly lied to since the prequels apparently spoil the plot twists.

Just finished the George smiley trilogy (tinkertailorsoldierspy honourable schoolboy smileys people)Although I had to read them with a dictionary I truly enjoyed the understated and hyper real spy craft that depends more on solid character development than superhuman feats although the scale of the story arc was big enough to be exciting; overall I'm glad I stumbled onto it and wish there were more George smileyAfterward I watched the TTSS movie and realized I would have liked the movie but I always always hate adaptations so I shouldnt have. Oh well

another bonus for kindle reading is double clicking mysterious words for definitions never heard of that trilogy but i'll add a spy series to the reading queue i'm curious how michael recommendations ® hold up on the baby punching scale when applied to books

OMG OMG OMG Gateway series?! Can't wait! Although I wonder if it will really follow the book's plot or if it will be other characters in the same universe. Either way it should be awesome.
