Boncho friends family on a quest to destroy some evil one more could you want
Finished Dan Simmons’ acclaimed Hyperion recently.
It was good. Very flowery language, had to reread paragraphs semi-often to fully grasp them. The whole “plot” essentially boiled down to the backstories of the main characters. But through the backstories a pretty cool universe was outlined

“Last kilometers” is a book about traffic accidents and events leading to them. Most of the stories are based on real-life accidents.
Really interesting find!

Reading The Postman but I’m almost finished that so I’ll be reading The Lord of the Rings trilogy again.

Snowcrash. It’s even wackier than I expected it would be. Before that, I read War is a Force That Gives Us Meaning. I mostly read nonfiction; Snowcrash was a fun break for me.

Schadrach in the Furnace, Robert Silverberg
Summary
The year is 2012. The world lies ravaged by biological warfare, its population decimated by a ferocious genetically-transmitted disease known as the organ rot. And presiding over the ruins is a ninety-three-year-old tyrant, preserved in a state of youth by a series of organ transplants: the self-styled Genghis Mao. Shadrach Mordecai, Genghis Mao’s trusted personal physician, was a vital cog in the great machine devoted to keeping the ruler alive: linked to him by a network of electronic implants, Shadrach was able to detect and diagnose the first signs of malfunction in his lord and master. But close as he was to the aging dictator, Shadrach could not have known that events would soon plunge him into a desperate struggle - a struggle in which a paragon of idealism faced the very incarnation of evil.
