The Embodiment of RED @beefasil@nfg.zone

Andy Weir's "Artemis" is not the best anything of the year, aside from the best Andy Weir novel of the year (1 nominee). I don't care what the Goodreads community thinks; it is just okay. Okay sci-fi, okay mystery.

Read Nick Harkaway's "Gnomon". It is an astounding novel, mystery, thought piece - everything.

@clew
It is denser than his other novels - beautifully so. It's a masterwork.

@beefasil He’s speaking in my city pretty soon, yay. Interviewed by Namez Raam, interesting choice.

@clew
Two really great novelists! The "Nexus" trilogy is also excellent.

clew @clew

@beefasil I find _Nexus_ only a patchy success, but the parts I like I really like. (The fiction is clunky for me, the science fiction great. And IIRC it isn't mean-tempered, which I count for a lot.)
