Rated The Mercy of Gods 10/10
Not as "fun" as the Expanse series. MUCH more serious. Much more grim.<br/><br/>But the writing is poetic. The story is FASCINATING. Can't wait for the next one!
Rated Eyes of the Void 6/10
I really really really wanted to like this book, but it just couldn't hold my attention.<br/><br/>Not sure if it's the narrator or what.<br/><br/>I listened to it. Pretty sure I followed most of the plot, but my mind would just wonder.<br/><br/>I'm generally a HUGE Tchaikovsky fan. *shrug*
Rated Aftermath 8/10
Fun and exciting and silly as always. The stakes are higher! Excited for the next one!
Rated Against Empathy: The Case for Rational Compassion 8/10
Mr Bloom makes a very compelling case here, although I think many will find it subtle.
Rated The Alloy of Law 8/10
Sanderson rocks. A very fun ride. Great characters. Great pacing. Funny, exciting, at times scary.<br/><br/>Wild West + magic is a great combination.
Rated Across the Universe 6/10
<br/> <br/>Solid. Entertaining. The back and forth between perspectives worked okay, but was a bit much at times. Enjoyable, but not awesome.
Rated Apathy 8/10
Copy paste my other reviews of this series. Fun. Thoughtful. Well imagined. Touching. A great ride.
Rated Our Mathematical Universe: My Quest for the Ultimate Nature of Reality 6/10
I tried really hard, but I don't think I'm smart/patient/knowledgeable to hold on to the last 1/3 of the book.<br/><br/>The first 2/3 was great. A set of great discussions about gravity and quantum mechanics – firmed up a bunch of my understanding.<br/><br/>The rest was just – hard. If you took a lot of college physics – or you're just adventurous, give it a try.
Rated Milk Run 6/10
*shrug*<br/><br/>An interesting universe and we spend so much time dealing with...inventory...disappointing.
Rated Waking Gods 10/10
The crazy ride continues. Touching, fascinating, clever, dark – highly recommended.<br/><br/>The anonymous dude is – well – one of the most interesting characters I've ever encountered in fiction.
Rated Sleeping Giants 10/10
What a crazy surprise! A crazy premise, but very well executed. Characters were super compelling. The mystery of the whole thing had me hooked from the beginning.
Rated Kill Decision 8/10
Like the Daemon 2-book series from Daniel Suarez, this book was a really fun ride.<br/><br/>While it was a bit less thrilling than Daemon 1 and 2, it made up for it by presenting a much more plausible set of circumstances.<br/><br/>Plausible <b>and</b> disturbing.<br/><br/>If you enjoy Michael Crichton, you'll likely enjoy Daniel Suarez.<br/><br/>Start it for the great, fast-paced store. Stay for the important public-policy implications it raises.
Rated Change Agent 8/10
Fun. Exciting. Dark. A cautionary tale about the future of genetic engineering.
Rated Enlightenment Now: The Case for Reason, Science, Humanism, and Progress 10/10
Took me a while to write this review.<br/><br/>The vision, intent, mission of the book is worth six stars.<br/>The delivery is often a 4 – so we'll call it 5.
