A spot of recent reading
Oct. 17th, 2024 23:33Finished Player of Games by Iain Banks recently. Intense, though in retrospect and in conjunction with a few other of his Culture novels, there's definitely a dark underbelly to the seeming utopia, an Omelas thing. Not subtle in the least.
Just finished Daughter of the Moon Goddess by Sue Lynn Tan. All in all, it felt like a moderately predictable young adult romance fantasy. Not a fan of the formulaic tropes of the subgenre. It felt like the author wrote herself into a bit of a corner near the end and had to invoke plot devices to get things back on track. I wonder how much AI has been trained on stuff like this.
