I really zoned out for this one. The audio was terrible too.

In a world where everyday people use the internet through total-sensory virtual reality, a specialist intelligence agency tracks down murderers and terrorists.
Slow and confusing, this book isn’t just a challenge to read, it’s a challenge to read with a straight face. One of the risks of speculative science fiction is that they can get very, very, wrong in their predictions. This book hand-waives people being transported into a magical world with no explanation as to how it’s possible or what it’s like. It is vague in everything it demands the reader suspend their disbelief in. It is awed at 900 Mhz computers. This is definitely a 1998 book that had way too much hope for its future.

I had a sticker with two, and the book had two.. and none of these are coming up with anything:
- This is apparently a series, which I won’t pursue, and there is also Tom Clancy’s Net Force Explorers

An anti-robot cop investigates the death of the father of contemporary artificial intelligence-enabled robots.
A great movie through and through. Highly recommended and a welcome addition to my science fiction movie catalog.

based on I, Robot – (1940-1950 short stories), by Isaac Asimov
This may take me quite some time to read through.

A classic work combining classic works.
I bought this because it’s considered one of the great works of literature and has survived into common culture. Though I can see why this would have been popular at the time, especially thanks to the forward saying that the brief writing style was rare, I don’t yet see why this would appeal to today’s person. Perhaps it’s just me, but so far I find the writing style rather insulting.

Tensions between the three factions in our solar system rise with an known party’s military science efforts.
Describing this one is pretty damned hard. Quite a good series, although the lead actor is just a little too young to be properly-believable. They all are, but I guess that was the target market.
