      I’m just getting into Science fiction and am never sure what to buy. I love Douglas Adams, Heinlein and Arthur C Clarke. Any suggestions???

      There’s not that much to update as I’ve been on YouTube for nearly four years now, and have been watching videos more than reading. I have a bunch of books that I wanted to read, but they remain mostly unopened on the shelf… Hey! That’s another video idea :)

      I love this video, it’s brimming with enthusiasm and really makes you want to read these books.

      I have never picked up another book by Neil Gaiman since I read American Gods, and that’s about three years ago now. I was not impressed, and I don’t know what all the hype is about…

      Since I’ve been on YouTube, my reading has slowed down considerably. It took me two months to get through “Spin” by Robert Charles Wilson just because so much of my time is spent here on YouTube. I’m currently reading “Beyond Infinity” by Gregory Benford, and 100 pages in it’s great!

      I should really do an update on this review someday :)

      I read Dune nearly thirty years ago, and as I remember it took me a good hundred pages before I started getting into it, and then it was terrific! The second and third books were also good, but after I got beyond that in the series they got less interesting. The last one that I read was “God Emperor Of Dune” which was disappointing like everything else that I read by Frank Herbert except for those first three Dune books…

      Thanks for the awesome review. Hope to hear more from yah later. Im just getting into sci- fi books. Just started Ender’s Game. Its great. Hope to read Dune too.
      I See you have American Gods by Neil Gaiman. Benn wanted to read some of his stuff. Was the book really good or worth reading?

      I wish I wasn’t so busy with YouTube… I’m down to reading one book in about three months these days :)

      I have yet to read ANY of the Jack Williamson that I picked up that time…

      I have yet to look at, let alone read all the Jack Williamson books that I bought. My YouTube addiction appears to be winning, but I will read more when I take a vacation. I used to read a lot at work in my taxi between fares. Nowadays I’m usually too busy except on very slow Sunday nights…

      I will attach it to this one, but I don’t have any immediate plans. I need to read a few more books first. ;-)

      Wow thanks for the reviews, I love Science Fiction also – mostly older stuff for me, but I got Phobos also.

      I’d love to hear more if you do another of these review blogs

      Aha! I’ve read most of that ringworld series, but never in order, and I may have missed one or two. It’s a bit like Frank Herbert’s Dune series. It took me 100 pages to get into Dune, then I couldn’t put it down! After that, the books got worse and worse as I kept going through the series. Most of the other Frank Herbert stuff I’ve read is crap…

      Ring Life? Who’s the author? I never heard of it. Right now, I’m reading about a book a month, down from five or six since I started on YouTube :)

    24. Vercinger Says:

      Have you read any of the sf books ‘Ring Life’? if so – can you do a review of them? :) I’d like to know if they’re worth reading :)

      Thanks

      See my Taxi Vlog 31 for my five all-time favorites! I plan to do a little review of what I’ve read since I made this video over a year ago…
