    Decent book.

    Went to pieces at the end.

    You read a book in a week?
    I didn't realise they did an illustrated Penguin version.

    Like Pingu, or summat.

    Seems I just infringed Hartog's copyright.
    That sounds very wrong.

    Have that.

    Just read The Algebraist by Ian M Banks.
    It's no Crow Road, and I have serious doubts that any of the events actually happened - but apart from that it was half decent.

    I'm now moving on to "That's not my dolly" for the under 12 months.
    Should be a challenge.
    "That's not my dolly, her dress is too spotty"
    "That's not my dolly, her shoes are too bumpy"
    "That's not my dolly, her hair ties are too shiny"
    "That's not my dolly, her hair is too frizzy"
    "That's my dolly - her bows are so silky".

    I'm struggling to understand the plot.

    Good book The Algebraist

    Not as good as the Culture novels like.

    Science Fiction. Have that!

    Picking Up The Pieces

    Picking up the pieces, but i dont think it is as good as the Jigsaw Man, which does hit the emotions, especially on the Jamie Bulger story. Remember reading it about 7 years ago with tears in my eyes on a flight back from Oz.
