Two great resources if you’re planning on joining the January Vintage SF not-a-challenge and have no idea where to start:
SF Mash-ups vs SF retellings on Kirkus. I’m interested in this “futuristic Count of Monte Cristo”.

New York ComiCon fun:
Cosplay fun
which came first, the chicken or the Boba Fett?

I need to read Little Brother so I can maybe read the sequel ages after it is published… 🙂

I’m dubious of the sequel to LITTLE BROTHER since it seemed to me as if the loose ends were tied up pretty well and a sequel might be overkill.
That said, I loved LITTLE BROTHER and so if the second book could capture the magic of the first and still tell me an interesting new story without rehashing the original, then I’ll be pleased.

Maybe the sequel is a different group of characters? no other details have been released yet . . . but it’s Doctorow. he wouldn’t let me down!
