Book Review Times Two
You may think this a lower priority than other details of my New Zealand trip, but I want to get it out of the way. After all, I didn't take notes on or pictures of the books I was reading.
First tome, as mentioned earlier, was The Bone People by Keri Hulme. ( Cut for length )
While waiting in the San Francisco airport, I bought another book on a whim, expecting that the two I brought with me wouldn't sustain my interest on the 13-hour flight. What could? How about a Terry Pratchett novel, namely Snuff?
( Cut for length again )
Only on a return flight did I begin the other book in my bag, David Weber's On Basilisk Station. So far it's been slow -- I keep neglecting my personal minimum of ten pages per day -- but it holds promise.
