Posthuman Blues

I picked up Rucker's "The Hollow Earth" and John Shirley's "Crawlers" at the library. I flipped a mental coin and started "Crawlers," which is at least as good as anything Shirley's written. If you see this in a bookstore, take ten minutes or so to savor the first chapter; the odds are you'll buy the book. (In "Crawlers," the Singularity has a serious attitude problem and a taste for blood.)
