Read Quarantine by greg Egan. Picked it up randomly. Nice surprise. I never heard of this dude, and appartently he is a super hard science SF. I dont like hard science, but is was very good. After the revelation that human are destroying the universe through observation of quantum .. it become a bit stale, and the long explanation (of quantum incertainty, to justify the twist) went well over my head, and lasted for way too long (hard science, I suppose) Still one of the best SF I read in a long time. Way above 'the 3 body problem" from which I was expecting so much. Read Promethea. By Alan Moore. Very wordly comic. Not the best Moore, but the charm is still here. This time it is all about human mythos and the sephirot tree, and tarot card as a revelation of human history. All stuff fascinating me since I read "foucault's Pendulum" by H.Eco. The second tome is a bit stale with the exploration of the Sephirot tree being long and without purpose. The very good: All the humor of the "weeping gorilla" comic, background joke. And the fact that the name "Promethea' is an annagram of "Metaphore"
I enjoyed Quarantine a lot when I read it 18 or so years ago. A rollicking tale for something with effectively no violence, no sex and no swearing. I recall the philosopher Huw Price (who was big in axiomatic metaphysics a thousand years ago when I was a postgrad) was a bit of an Egan fan, claiming that his fiction explored stuff that was only starting to emerge in academic literature.
