How much does it weigh?.. Add to my package and I'll ship to mvb?..

[mvb]

i would have to sent something back. Probably cost as much as the book itself

I ship for free so no need to ship anything back… But this might actually be easier:

I'm currently reading 'Wherever You Go, There You Are' by Jon Kabat-Zinn.  It's about mindfulness meditation - something that I really need to incorporate into my life and which I finally feel ready for.

Prior to that I (re) read 'The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People' by Stephen Covey, which is one of my 'life reference' books.

Dude, post here: http://www.ironheart.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=780.msg118626#msg118626

I would happily discuss authors with you.

Well, currently I'm reading up on Vernon Vinge, like him ok so far.

When it comes to sci-fi I like Simmons, Banks, Hamilton, Reynolds and the rest of the classics, right now I'm looking for a large series, not necessarily the same storyline, but the same universe, like Reynolds or Banks. Suggestions?

[hectic]

Space opera? New weird? Something else?

[hectic]

Richard Morgan. He has a core character called Takeshi Kovacs who spans several books.

[hectic]

Neal Asher too but pulpy/very prolific. Hard scifi
