Gabby ended up being pretty much what I expected it to be ... although, they did point out that her rehab experience was seriously not typical. I was the only person among my friends who wasn't surprised by her resignation ... they had been talking about her in the next election cycle and they were appalled that I was saying there was no way that she was ever going to be capable of remaining in congress. Turns out, of course, that I was right.

I finally read The Demolished Man by Alfred Bester. Awesome cross-pollination of science fiction and mystery. Neither genre would work for the story without the other ... good mystery AND good SF in the same package, rather than a convention mystery with spaceships and rayguns added to it.

Now onto Percepliquis by Michael J. Sullivan. It's the final book in the Riyria Revelations fantasy series.
