only good sci-fi book 2000

anyone else /wonky-lit/

candy-flipped last night to some heavy dubstep event and jesus christ, I was fucking mowing down the buggers from Enders and the ants from Armour. Tore into them like a mechanized suit of fury.

Then I was pretty much every character in Blindsight and Echopraxia, pretty sure I both fought Jim Moore in The Crown of Thorns then killed Valarie in the desert with the hypodermic.

I've been doing a lot of re-reading recently and that's probably responsible but good god, you cunts have to try this

Well, in my opinion...
Bruks was half scared half washed up so he was hiding in the desert. To what degree the Bicamerals manipulated this is up to you.
I think that by the time "he" killed the vampire,
Portia was essentially controlling him. Or he's paranoid baseline
Perhaps, the sentiment from Valerie (why can't we get along) is likely to spoken to Portia within Bruks head, and it's exactly the kind of mindless chatter which Rorschach/Portia hate so perhaps thats when it decided to kill her.
Her goal was to interpret Portia. Who knows if she did or not.
The bicamerals did, and we willing to sacrifice themselves.
There are some bigger questions on Echo out there that even I don't have an answer for.

I'm sad you guys didn't like it. All I can recommend it letting it settle for a bit then re-read it. Echopraxia is easily the more difficult of the Firefall duet, but my god it's got a lot more going on, and I personally think it's a lot more thematically interesting and ultimately the better book.
