Congratulations on finishing your Pick and Mix challeenge Rhonda!.Some interesting reads there.I always thought Solaris was unbearably slow.Hyperion was brilliant,my first Simmons book,and of course I had to read Fall of Hyperion immediately.Different,not so much impact but still a good read.I seem to be in a minority about KSRs Red Mars,I was very disappointed in it,Oh for a book about the terraforming of Mars that actually has some solid terraforming in it.It seems books about Mars have to be about political manouevering and skullduggery,revolts and revolutions..The format annoyed me too.We learn early on of the death of a character,then go back and follow him for 100s of pages,he was one of the few characters in the book I liked!Anyhoo,thanks for doing the challenge Rhonda,and good luck with the 35 challenge.Should be a snap at the rate you are reading!
