Finished Practical Demonkeeping by Christopher Moore. It was a fine book, enjoyed reading it, at least the latter half.

Started The Hero of Ages by Brandon Sanderson. Third and final book the of Mistborn series, well the first era anyway. This is quite a dreary book, but it concludes everything so that's good.

What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

Just a note, next weekly thread falls on 31st Dec, so we are going to skip that, see you in week after that, in 2025!

Huge fan of the we are legion, we are bob series right now.

It's about a guy at a sci-fi convention who signs up for one of those "we freeze you before you die" programs/scams and wakes up as an AI with no rights a few hundred years in the future.

It really starts going off the rails when he gets sent off to space and given orders to

Build a space station

Copy yourself several times

Send those copies off to build more space stations.

A growing civilization of yourself and endless space. What can possibly go wrong?
