I have read the Cantos and enjoyed it, but found it went out with a putter. The second one was so good.

It's popular to hate on classics. Someone was shitting on Shakespeare on /v/ the other day. Don't know why I was surprised.

The science fiction I've read recently are
>Revelation Space by Alistair Reynolds
>Quantum Thief/Fractal Prince by Hannu Rajaniemi
Really enjoyed this one for being so new
>Pandora's Star by Peter F. Hamilton
Very slow, but amazing alien concept.
>Now reading Book of the New Sun
I already have so many questions. Who is Severian? Messiah? Pawn of ancient aliens? Way in the future or waaay in the past?
