I'm finishing it out of spite at this point. It has become quite shit.

Greg Bear's Moving Mars, which came out nine months before, and which won the Nebula the year Red Mars didn't, kicks the ever-loving shit out of it. However, Greg Bear made his point and moved on to other things while Kim Stanley Robinson beat a dead horse for another three books.

Thanks for the recommendation. Once I finish RM I'll check that one out. Also picked up a copy of the Foundation trilogy the other day at a library sale so I'll be sinking my teeth into that.

Oh, I have got to re-read Foundation, it was one of my favourite sci-fi series (granted, I haven't read that many).

Hope you enjoy it :)

Foundation is a good read. Stick to the three core books.
