Jim Toepel is 60% done with Leviathan Wakes (The Expanse, #1)
Whoops. I'm gonna read this whole dumb thing in a weekend. The pacing is stunning and I love the intersecting perspectives. Really got into the set piece at 50% despite the occasional modern "pulp" culture references. (would they know who Hieronymus Bosch, Don Quixote, etc were?)

It’s refreshing to see someone write down things that I have “felt” for years.

Jim Toepel is 30% done with A Closed and Common Orbit (Wayfarers, #2)
I miss the old characters but the “orphanage” story is great and the descriptions of an AI confines to a body are interesting.

Jim Toepel is 68% done with Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies
Can see the end in sight. Definitely helping me redefine privilege and my distaste for “competition” too often in conflict, the end result is predetermined and not really personally attributable.
