Thinking about what Scalzi to pick up next, but don't want to get bogged down in one of his other series (yet), so was looking at either FUZZY NATION or ANDROID'S DREAM (perhaps RED SHIRTS, but though I'm a Star Trek fan, it comes across as kinda gimmicky). Will certainly pick up the two-book LOCK IN series before too much longer. I also just received THE DISPATCHER, so that'll be next.

Originally posted by RonClinton View PostSage advice. I'll need to start slowing down a bit once I have these three new reads in my hands...spread 'em out a bit.Twitter: https://twitter.com/ron_clinton

Lost that battle, too...finished THE DISPATCHER and now reading REDSHIRTS. Restraint be damned.

Originally posted by RonClinton View PostYeah, THE DISPATCHER was great, and I’m about halfway through REDSHIRTS and am really enjoying it. I read some older interview on-line where Scalzi said he was going to revisit the world of THE DISPATCHER and write a full-length novel set there. No idea if he’s still working on that idea or if he abandoned the idea...

Martin, I finished FUZZY NATION tonight, and you were right (in another thread)...it’s a fantastic read, full of character and thrills, heart and charm. Just a wonderful read.
I couldn’t help it — just started another Scalzi (THE ANDROID’S DREAM) right after it.Twitter: https://twitter.com/ron_clinton
