Re: Book Recs?

[(Anonymous)]

John Barnes wrote a book called Directive 51. It was pretty okay. I didn't like it as much as his other work, but if you're interested in all that kind of thing, it'll scratch your itch. I know, I know - I'm really selling it here.

Actually, in looking online, it appears that most of the things I really disliked about the book and its sequel (broadly, it has the plot and characterization of a pretty straightforward thriller, to the point that it loses some interest, and is also very uncharacteristic of Barnes' work) were pretty much the fault of the publisher forcing Barnes to do things a certain way very much against his own wishes, and him acquiescing for financial reasons.

So that's comforting for my opinion of Barnes as a writer, although it does make me very sad in terms of the book that could have existed. But I'm not sure where this leaves my recommendation. I think it's still a pretty interesting book with some very, very interesting concepts, so you may still want to read it. There's apparently the possibility of him rewriting the books in line with his original conception, but I wouldn't count on that ever happening.

So, uh, yeah. That's the most qualified recommendation ever. But hopefully it'll help you out somewhat because the topic of the book is definitely what you're looking for.

honestly, I'm ready to give anything a try. I've been going through these books way too fast and need something to entertain me. I found Rawles's writing to be a bit subpar, but I kept reading because I liked the subject.
