    I just binged the entire Hitchhikers Guide series, so I took a couple of weeks off after finishing “And Another Thing” to digest everything.

    This week I started listening to New York 2140 by Kim Stanley Robinson.

    This is the first audio book I’ve listened to with a cast of people each doing characters, and it’s a bit different, so I’ll see how I feel about it in the long run.

    My desk book (for when I take small breaks and want a short story) is still The Martians by KSR, although I realized I never finished Asimov’s The Complete Stories Vol 1 that used to be on my desk, so I think I may pull it back out next.

      I’m a fan of Asimov and would also read his short stories on lunch.

      I also have read The Illustrated Man by Ray Bradbury several times, it is a fun collection that I highly recommend.

        I’ve been enjoying DCC too much lately, I usually alternate my books between Star Wars and another one. Asimov is one of the main ones, but I also don’t want to be done them!

        This is my read Asimov shelf, doesn’t include his editor only ones.

        And my used, to be read section of his.
