Summer reading and more

Basically, a peek at my kindle list:

--The Devil Colony:  A Sigma Force Novel.
--A Game of Thrones.
--A Clash of Kings.
--A Storm of Swords.
--A Feast for Crows.
--A Dance with Dragons
--Harvard is Burning.  (Lee Siegel's essay on liberal ideology.)
--On Bullshit. (Harry Frankfurt.)

Now I'm growing impatient with GRR Martin, because there appears to be no definite prospect of release on the sixth of the series, only a flippant comment or two on his website.  Dude:  get on with it.

Current Reading

An amazing novel of "dystopian philosophical fiction:" Anathem, by Neal Stephenson. I'm about halfway through. If you make an effort to "translate" the other-world vocabulary, you can follow (or teach) much of the history of philosophy, especially philosophy of religion. It's about faith and reason, sacred and secular, clerical and lay, all turned inside-out, on a post-apocalyptic, suspiciously earth-like planet called "Arbre". In this journey epic, an intrepid fellowship navigates its way through a world that is not only physically hostile, but intellectually cannibalistic.
