Holidays

Filed under: site — kevin @ 21:03

I’m off to Spain tomorrow and don’t get back until Monday night so there won’t be any posts over the weekend. In fact there probably won’t be any until Thursday as I’m off on a business trip to Stockholm Tuesday evening.

The digital camera will be going with me so expect photos from the mountains!

Dead Air

Filed under: books — kevin @ 20:57

I finished reading Dead Air, the new Iain Banks book, last night. I’ve read all his books so far but I was strangely disappointed by this one.

It has all the usual features: dark humour, a Scottish main character and politics. Somehow it seems to be just more thinly-veiled than usual political rant. OK, I agree with many of the ideas but a bit more of a plot would be nice.

Maybe I just missed something, I’ll re-read it before I return it to the library.
