Yeah, I’m doing it backwards but I picked up Scott Sigler’s “Infected” for the Kindle and reading it on my iPhone after enjoying the hell out of “Contagious”. Truly, to Scott’s credit, he’s such a good writer that I didn’t need to read Infected first to fully understand what was happening in Contagious. Looking forward to sinking my teeth into this one.

Some of the books I’ve just finished recently and are definitely worth a mention are

HOW TO SURVIVE A ROBOT UPRISING by Daniel H. Wilson

We had Daniel as a guest on Radio Go Daddy and he was fantastic. Got a chance to read the book the week before and thought it was incredibly comprehensive in terms of all the ways you could actually survive a theoretical robot uprising (Transistor Rodeo 2, anyone?) Plus, the artwork is incredi-cool.

THE TRAVELLER by John Twelve Hawks

Who is John Twelve Hawks, you ask? Nobody really knows who is behind this pesudonym. Rumor is he’s actually the alter ego of 12 Hawks’ literary agent. Either way, the book, about a world where cutting edge technology is, in fact, being used to control and observe every human being and the secret society of warriors trying to stop The Vast Machine from gaining control of everything you say or do, is not only chilling in its very Orwellian tones but a pretty cool thriller as well.
