There moments when you wonder what you get from reading a book, sometimes it is another world, a place of escape, a delight to have. I find myself having finished "Bitterseed" The words of Edgar Rice Boroughs that appear in a extra on the John Carter Bluray " He wanted a part of the action that these rubbishy writers were getting. Bitterseed is ok but it does feel like damned with faint praise. Must get my own work out there sometime so I can be damn by faith praise to. Dyslexia Rocks Have fun

So I have put another book down. I put it down because it hasn't worked for me. It was going great right up to the nazi psychic had to walk through London. There was no sense of menace or arrogance or impending doom as he draws near to the hero's family and life and I don't need dull in my life. so I have put "Bitterseeds" down. I went back to reading "Make it so" The book on sci-fi interfaces. Which is completely and utterly captivating. I am enjoying my dyslexia at the moment. Have fun.

So I have just finished "The Lost Gate" by Orson Scott Card. It is good most enjoyable. but As someone who writes the funnest part is the afterward. Where he unpacks the process and origin of the story I have just read. It is so neat to understand that this world he has written about, was not a one hit and it was done job. It has taken years to put it together. In various forms and editions as he work to make a satisfying moment for himself. To tell a story that stands for itself and it's own internal reality. It does, once you get used to both worlds. Do wonder if there is a next in this series. I have tracked down a previous entry into this world "Stonefather" so I'll read that when it gets here.

In the meantime I shall begin reading "Eureka" by Peter Fitzsimons or Keith Windscuttle "The Fabrication of Aboriginal History: Volume 1". Failing that Ian Tregillis "Bitterseeds"

Oh so many books and so much time, I like my life,  I like my God, I like my family, I like my dyslexia, I hope you like your day do enjoy it, have a good one.
