What are you reading this week of February 26, 2017? [View all]
I finally got my copy of Telempath by Spider Robinson. We're in what remains of NYC in the future, as imagined by Spider in 1976.
When the strange artificial plague arrived, all over the world people exploded from their cities and towns, killing anything and anyone that impeded their mad stampede for air untainted by technology.
It has some unusual ideas and I'm quite enjoying it.
Listening to Walter Mosley's Fear Itself, a Fearless Jones mystery.
Mild-mannered Paris Minton is delivered a pile of trouble when Fearless shows up with a simple request: help find a beautiful woman's husband. Now he's wondering whom he should fear more: the people he's looking for or the people he's working for.
Good story. I love that Paris owns a used book store and how reading the classics informs his thinking. Big 
for that.
May I say, "Good bye, February. You won't be missed."
