Ashes of Man by Christopher Ruocchio. It's a good book so far. I like the series as a whole, but my pace of reading the books are getting slower as the years go on. It's not that the stories are bad it's that Ruocchio really shot himself in the foot by revealing the climax of the whole series on the first page of book 1 and fucking waiting 6+ more novels to get there.

I think I'm gonna switch to Neuromancer when I'm done this book. I need a short pallet cleanser.

Then I might tackle Infinite Jest or Gravity's Rainbow out of curiosity.
