I just finished Blindsight by Peter Watts + the short story The Colonel, which serves as a tie-in between the first book and Echopraxia. Gonna have to wait a while before picking Echopraxia though, this books are demanding!

I’m sure that Blindsight will be better after rereading!
Also, going through the Clarkesworld backlog is no small feat, that’s 201 numbers as of right this month lmao
Yeah I don’t think I was in the right headspace to really enjoy Blindsight on my first run. I was still trying to figure out the multiple personality thing when the aliens started aliening.
The early Clarkesworld issues are super short. And if you stagger them out like between novels they feel like a nice palette cleanser. Once I’ve worked through more of the issues, I might make a post on what issues were my favorite.
It’ll be nice to read about! I also remember reading somewhere that Clarke’s world were working on offering some kind of packages to get their older releases, so it could be a nice guide for once they get them out as well
All of their old issues are posted free on their website, so that’s been enough for me
