More books!

I've run out of things to read, and really needed to get out of the apartment, so I schlepped down to B&N. Pretty good haul.

David Drake - The Tank Lords. Been years (decades, actually) since I read Hammer's Slammers. Since I'm going to Conjecture and will probably end up on panels with Mr. Drake, seems to be a good time to reread them.

Iain M. Banks - Excession. Slowly but surely I'm working my way through the Culture novels.

Allen Steele - Lunar Descent. I really enjoyed the Colony trilogy and this book appears to focus on blue collar workers on the Moon. I like his writing style, so I'm looking forward to this one.

Eric Flynt & Ryk E. Spoor - Boundary. I've been looking for one of [livejournal.com profile] seawasp's books for a while now. The back cover blurb is interesting, and I think I'll have fun with the story.

Looked at a couple of history books, but nothing leapt out at me.

So, what are y'all reading right now?

I just finished both Canal Dreams and The Business. I'm trying to read Banks's non-scifi novels.

Today I'm picking up a Finnish translation of Moby Dick from the local library. I haven't read it and I've been trying to read some classic novels, so I thought I'd try this one.
