Have you read Crowley's earlier 'Engine Summer'? Another wonderful book. :-)
Not yet. I give most books a few chapters, but over the years I've read to many formulaic books that frustrated then turned me to other pursuits, also family life does not encourage the self indulgence of reading. I delight when I find an Author who kick starts the old engine and I'm back at the beginning when I first discovered the sci fi bookshelf in the library. So all suggestions are welcome. Neal Ashers Spatterjay series started me reading again, My goal is to write, but Oscar Wilde Once said"there's a book in everyone and that's where it should stay!" But discovering good reads is like wandering into new lands. And more importantly breaking out of social isolation and finding others of like mindedness....
I think it was Oscar Wilde,I'll have to check now....
