In the Mail: Charles Stross’s The Rhesus Chart.

Part of his Laundry Files series.  Lovecraft meets spy novels, etc. etc. etc. Looking forward to reading it.

  1. Already on my Kindle – pre-ordered, last week, along with a couple of the Laundry shorts (“Overtime” and “Down on the Farm”) that I had somehow missed…

    It’s *supposed* to be my “long weekend read”, but .. I’m through both shorts and the first chapter of Rhesus.. I predict you’re gonna like it.

    p.s. very minor spoiler, “Those poor Residual Human Resources”…

        1. I hadn’t realized “Down on the Farm” existed, and missed dozens of references to it in other stories…

        2. “Equoid” is good … and it’s up for a Hugo this year.

          I really, really, really like the Laundry stories. (And there are Easter eggs in them for people who read The Register.)

  2. It looks like they dropped the price of the ebooks down to a price I’m willing to consider paying. For a while there, they were just ridiculous.

    I run hot and cold with Stross. Kind of like Greg Bear.
    I know if I pick up a book of his, that I’m either going to like it, or hate it, with not much in between. I liked the Laundry Files that I’ve read. Accelerando left a dent in my wall.
    And that’s when he’s not on a crusade against Amazon or self-publishing. (Both of which, I tend to like a good deal more than Mr. Stross.)
