Ah, a new year, a time to read even more.
Other Christmas presents included Spook Country and The Yiddish Policeman's Union both of which I'm looking forward to.
Also on the pile to read are a few from Orbit:
Although I haven't read the book before Chaos Space, which puts me off a bit and highlights the entire problem with series. Talking of series, I have the three Orphanage books to read as well, which have nice covers, but again, the whole series thing is off putting. Also not convinced about reading Gears of War: Aspho Fields seeing as it's based on a video game I know nothing about.
I also have a few old books bought from random Christmas fairs and found lying around including a collection of JG Ballard short stories, some old Heinlein and some old Vogt. None of which I know much about, but they were 10p or something and Science Fiction, and therefore I had to buy them.
And, on top of that I want to read at least one short story every week. Because I should. Hopefully I'll read all the short lists for the BSFA awards. Nebulas and Hugos.
