I’m currently reading the Wool omnibus by Hugh Howey. It’s pretty decent I’ve been making very rapid progress as it’s been too hot to sleep here recently now the summer has arrived.
I haven’t seen the Apple show, but maybe I’ll watch it in the future when I’ve finished all the books (I had Shift and Dust as well).
I’ve been reading Carrion Comfort. Really cool mystery story with people that can mind control. You’re always trying to figure out what the Game is and what are these pawns accomplishing.
Its a little long winded but Dan Simmons can write a compelling story.
Def more Horror than Science Fiction.
Simmons does a good job with horror as well as science fiction. Hyperion is a wonderful blending of the two imo. The Terror is good as well for the hostile environment and isolation he manages to convey
His more recent work though… I’ll just leave this NPR review https://www.npr.org/2011/07/28/137621172/one-rant-too-many-politics-mar-simmons-dystopia
