| I'm sorry, Charlie, especially after how much I liked Accelerando, but this is just thuddingly stupid. Thinly drawn characters, an even more thinly drawn world (two of them, in fact!), questionable leap into romance, and a surfeit of arch, self-aware...more | |

You know, I considered giving this book two stars, but it just seemed like too much of a bitchslap to an author whose first book, Then We Came to the End, I enjoyed immensely. The first half of The Unnamed is good, it pulls you along as you wonder wh...more |

“The world needed changing - that I knew. Global warming threatened to give us all a lethal tan; war and poverty decimated whole nations; crops worldwide were shriveling; even our brethren beasts menaced us with their monkey pox and bird flu and mad cow disease.”

“After graduating, I'd moved to the Washington D.C. area to see what I could do with the skills I'd picked up from a creative writing degree.
