Just finished reading Charlie Stross's The Atrocity Archives
. Apparently I'm quite capable of ploughing through a book in two days once I actually get started, it's just the picking a book up in the first place I'm still having trouble with...
It's very funny, on more than one level, though I'm not sure how well it's going to work for people who don't have a geeky background. Lots of nifty ideas, and some engaging (if occasionally scary) characters caught up in a story with roots in both spy stories and Lovecraftian horror. Must buy the sequel The Jennifer Morgue
after Christmas.
