Energy Cell
The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet
I got tired of waiting for the library, so I broke down and bought it. Glad I did, this was really good. And, last check, I'm still at number 16 on the library wait list. I find no movement at all for a month kinda odd.

Very much so. Especially as I keep getting the stupid person at the Lack Of Help Desk who can't grasp what I'm trying to explain.
