I just binged the entire Hitchhikers Guide series, so I took a couple of weeks off after finishing "And Another Thing" to digest everything.
This week I started listening to New York 2140 by Kim Stanley Robinson.
This is the first audio book I've listened to with a cast of people each doing characters, and it's a bit different, so I'll see how I feel about it in the long run.
My desk book (for when I take small breaks and want a short story) is still The Martians by KSR, although I realized I never finished Asimov's The Complete Stories Vol 1 that used to be on my desk, so I think I may pull it back out next.
I’m a fan of Asimov and would also read his short stories on lunch.
I also have read The Illustrated Man by Ray Bradbury several times, it is a fun collection that I highly recommend.
I’ve been enjoying DCC too much lately, I usually alternate my books between Star Wars and another one. Asimov is one of the main ones, but I also don’t want to be done them!
This is my read Asimov shelf, doesn’t include his editor only ones.
And my used, to be read section of his.
Thanks! I'll add it to the list.
