Rocky Raccoon Race Report
First, the good news: I DNF’d my 62-mile race at mile 48 because of an equipment malfunction. The waistlight that had been so reliable through many a prior ultra went kaput for no discernable reason. It’s possible that one of the times during this ultra that I tripped on an exposed root and faceplanted on the trail, the light broke my fall and broke itself in the process. Whatever the reason, I f

| I enjoyed Bennett's Shadow of the Leviathan books, so I was excited to try another series written by him. This didn't disappoint (though I do like Leviathan better so far), and the audiobook version was quite good in the bargain. ...more | |

| I like novella-length fiction, and the premise here intrigued me, though ultimately I found this just so-so. There didn't seem like quite enough to make this one stand out from the glut of pandemic/zombocalypse stories or to give sufficient strength ...more | |

| Fascinating, informative, and hilarious. Important, too, given the mass extinction events we continue to cause. | |

I enjoyed this even more than Book 1. Bring on Book 3! Update: reread (or rather listened to on audio), re-enjoyed. |

| I enjoyed Book 1 of this series, but Book 2 was a bit disappointing. It seemed clunky -- the War is almost an afterthought much of the time, and most of the "action" is just Bess going all over the place talking to people. I had a hard time believing ...more | |

| Ashton is a wonderful writer, and I've enjoyed his previous novels a lot, though this was not one of my favorites. A lot of the characters seemed thinly drawn and ultimately not at all likeable, amusing, or sympathetic -- Six's brattiness in particul ...more | |

| Really well-crafted mystery, with a strong sense of setting and characters. The only reason it's a 4 and not 5-star is personal taste -- I found one of the characters SO detestable that sections that featured him were hard to take and I wanted to ski ...more | |
“It had nothing to do with gear or footwear or the backpacking fads or philosophies of any particular era or even with getting from point A to point B.
It had to do with how it felt to be in the wild. With what it was like to walk for miles with no reason other than to witness the accumulation of trees and meadows, mountains and deserts, streams and rocks, rivers and grasses, sunrises and sunsets. The experience was powerful and fundamental. It seemed to me that it had always felt like this to be a human in the wild, and as long as the wild existed it would always feel this way.”
