Finished reading: Stealing for the Sky, by Adam Roberts. A terrific brief SF thriller β€” fast-paced, to be sure, but as always with Adam, there’s much more going on than might first appear. I hope there’ll be at least one sequel. And I hope I can figure out why one minor character is named Stanley Cavell. πŸ“š
