Revelation Space by Alastair Reynolds.
Mon, 10 Sep 2007 00:06:33 -0700
Wow what a book. Can't wait to read the next one. Alastair Reynolds

into cryo for vast interstellar trips. Great stuff.

Ken Slater injured
Sat, 1 Sep 2007 19:55 +0100 (BST)
Ken Slater, a very long-standing British SF fan, apparently had a fall on
Thursday night, while attending Polcon in Warsaw. He was flown home last

age is likely to be dangerous, the injuries are apparently painful but not
life-threaten ...
