How to store your prized possessions

As a response to Neal Asher's latest post on his blog this is my somewhat disorganized bookcase collection of SciFi books. Mostly what I've been reading over the last fours years and a number yet to be read. There are several books I've read from the Portland Public Library in the same time frame. About twenty-two of these I bought from some local used book shops. There's also some of my infamous Asimov's in the lower right corner.

In my attic are several boxes of mostly scifi books which I read over thirty years ago. If I live long enough there are a few I'd like to read again. In earlier blogs I've mention I have a unfinished blog detailing my journey into scifi. It's been a long time since I started it and it still has a long way to go, It's been awhile since my last entry in it.

I'd like to recommend "DeepDrive" by Alexander Jablokov if you can find it anywhere. The storyline and the action I think you'd admire. Great future stuff mostly within our solar system. A couple of other things I've read of Jablokov's is "Nimbus" and a story in Asimov's. I exchanged a couple of emails with him as well. He was expecting a new book to be out which now is expected for the end of this year or the beginning of 2010 called Brain Thief". He has an online journal at - http://www.ajablokov.com/journal/
