Cryptonomicon by Neal Stephenson
wfzimmerman's review: "An incredible tour de force. Unfortunately, this was a high water mark for Stephenson. His subsequent books have strayed into territory that I found more difficult to digest."

Into the Thinking Kingdoms (Journeys of the Catechist/Alan Dean Foster, Bk 2) by Alan Dean Foster
wfzimmerman's review: "This Catechist series was pretty darned good, but I am leaning towards getting rid of all my Foster except for the Commonwealth & Flinx books. Not that Foster's other universes aren't good, he just is too prolific for me to try to collect his entire works, given my limited shelf space! Deaccessioned."

Loading …Memory, A Miles Vorkosigan Adventure by Lois McMaster Bujold
wfzimmerman's review: "Perhaps the very best of Bujold's unexcelled Vorkosigan series. I hope she doesn't keep writing these silly romantic fantasies (THE SHARING KNIFE) and comes back to Vorkosigan series for more than just one book."

Brightness Reef (Bantam Spectra Book) by David Brin
wfzimmerman's review: "The title brings back the feeling of exuberant optimism that Brin fans felt at the beginning of this series, which, sadly, fizzled out into something of a disappointment as this trilogy ended up circling around a galactic sump hole, both literally and metaphorically."

Life Its Ownself: The Semi-Tougher Adventures of Billy Clyde Puckett and Them by Dan Jenkins
wfzimmerman's review: "This book and [SEMI-TOUGH] are still enjoyable reads. Classics in the rather small genre of funny football novels. I'd like to have firsts of both of these."
