September 3, 201015 yr The Blade Itself by Joe Abercrombie Book 1 of the First Law Trilogy. Great stuff. If you like Martin's Song of Ice & Fire you will probably like this. Simpler (less epically EPIC) but just as gritty.
September 19, 201015 yr It is Genetic programming - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia a very cool method of optimization.

October 4, 201015 yr Was: Kelley Armstrong, Personal Demon Is: Kelley Armstrong, Living with the Dead
October 4, 201015 yr Author Amazon.com: The Angel's Game (9780767931113): Carlos Ruiz Zafon: Books Just finished it. Great book, decent ending. I REALLY like his writing style.
October 4, 201015 yr Chris Moriarty's Spin State That was an interesting book, I am going to read Spin Control next (sequel) when I'm done with Peter F Hamilton The Evolutionary Void.
October 11, 201015 yr Jailbait Zombie by Mario Acevedo -- bought this on a lark, it's actually quite entertaining Sent from mah Droid
October 21, 201015 yr Kelley Armstrong, Frostbitten -- easily my favorite author of this genre. I love the way she can switch 'voice'.
October 21, 201015 yr i read Spin Control by Chris Moriarty a while back (i really hope there is another book in the series! forthcoming!), and then re-read Target Tokyo by Gordon Prange. now i'm finally reading some China Mieville. i really hate Steampunk, but i'm gonna try anyway. looking forward to your impressions. I prefer "The Scar" and his newer noirish offering "The City and the City"
October 22, 201015 yr i figured that i should start with the book that brought him to fame. oh you absolutely should. I like PSS but consider CoSaM the true penultimate steampunk "city" book. well CoSaM combined with Shriek.
October 24, 201015 yr The Riddle of the Traveling Skull - Harry Stephen Keeler Nothin' like an overly complicated mystery novel.
October 24, 201015 yr Kelley Armstrong, Frostbitten -- easily my favorite author of this genre. I love the way she can switch 'voice'.I'm in -- she had one of her characters say, "Pffft." Twice.
November 15, 201015 yr Finished Frostbitten, read Men Of The Otherworld (which I thought was a short story collection, but was largely the backstory of one of the primary men in the series. Also read Definitely Dead and All Together Dead by Charlaine Harris -- she's my second favorite of the genre. Started Altered Carbon by Richard K. Morgan.
November 20, 201015 yr Loved the turrets scene. Very Warner Bros. The rest of the book isn't as Warner Bros., but that was like Fifth Element meets Film Noir. I'm actually picturing Bogey playing the lead -- his face, uncolorized, digitally superimposed on Bruce Willis' head.
November 22, 201015 yr Okay, this book totally rocks. I mean, it totally rocked before, but it is my new best friend now. One of the characters just said, "Oh, come on!"...with 'on' being italicized.
