Toot

Finished the Wheel of Time last night as I entered my birthday after 5+ years of reading on and off.

Can't say it was the most incredible and mind blowing story in the end but it did sort of stick the landing I thought. Although it did have some "end of Michael Bay movie rock music playing with voice over" feel to it.

What's next!? Maybe the next books from S. A. Corey? I think one is out that isn't The Expanse?

@Olical Iain M Banks, Culture books, in published order works? For an optimistic view of how technology can integrate with human society. Plus the snarky dialog and ship names are always good. Not really a series but they do develop. Also, it's the most likely that's as close to real #AI as we're getting in our lifetimes 😉

@futurile ohh, yeah my classic sci-fi backlog is VERY patchy. This is a good idea, thanks. Might take a small break and read some more human voices from underrepresented groups (my partner has some good recs for me) but will return here when I'm ready for more space and speculation.
