19.08.2024 Liebes Tagebuch…
Neulich habe ich (Hör-)Buchnachschub im Bereich “Hard Sci-Fi” gesucht.
Ich glaube zwar, dass es eher in den Bereich Sci-Fi statt Hard Sci-Fi fällt. Trotzdem ist “The Murderbot Diaries” eine Empfehlung.
Wenn komplexe ethische Fragen mit subtilem Humor vor dem Hintergrund einer spannenden Erzählung behandelt werden, scheint das irgendwie mein Ding zu sein.
Und jetzt wünsche ich eine gute Nacht 🛌
Hi from ignorant monoglot lands: I read this book and it’s great. It’s a very fast read and over too soon but feels more perfect for it.
The narrator’s voice is fun.
All in all I heavily recommend it.Oh, today’s translation programmes have become so good. That’s enough to follow a small “blog” like this one.
I recommend DeepL Web or Android App for this
With (audio) books, of course, it’s a different story.
Ooh, thank you! That worked swimmingly.
Moreso though, I might be missing undertones and am most likely to take things at face value so I apologize if I’m sidestepping some inferences.
I got the hard copy, I thought it was alright. I wonder if voice narration would make it better
I ripped through this whole series, it’s fun and there’s a little more going on than you’d expect.
wait
SERIES??
Oh wow. Those are going on my reading list for sure.
Can you recommend good hard sci-fi books, or a list?
I really enjoyed the Trisolaris series by Liu Cixin, The Expanse series by James S. A. Corey and the Bobiverse series by Dennis E. Taylor.
As a single book, I really liked Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir.
As I enjoyed everything you listed, I’ll assume I’ll also enjoy the Murderbots.
I am currently reading „This is how you lose the Time War“. It was praised, but I cannot give a verdict, yet.
I can recommend the „Wool“ series by Hugh Howie and the „Broken Earth“ by NK Jemisin (more „technical“ Fantasy than SF, but great world building).
Thanks, those look very interesting!
Don’t mention it.
