Hamilton tends to be a bit wordy, but bear with him, as they are a cracking space opera of a read. I just read on the forum- this is why I play Eve: http://myeve.eve-online.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=934766 The game allows this sort of thing to happen- people make mistakes and others get lucky. Wonderful! Glad I put you both onto those books. Hamilton tends to be a bit wordy, but bear with him, as they are a cracking space opera of a read.

I just finished the last Culture novel in my possession and need something to fill in the gaps before I get the rest of them. How interesting to hear your background in EVE and where your name came from. Your comment about EVE being a game we care about...and the implication that is why it gets to us sometimes...sooo true. Do other games inspire the kind of supplemental activities such as blogging, third party apps and tools, etc., as EVE does? I don't play anything else so have no idea.

I'm always looking for good scifi series. I'll have to check it out a bit more. As you say, EVE has provided an outlet for our creativity. For me, it's also provided me with countless opportunities to meet new people both face-to-face and online. It's something which is a great part of the lure it has.
