Speculative and Science Fiction on Humanities Commons 8 years, 7 months agoThanks, Sophia! Will check it out tonight. As an aside, I just binge-read Neal Stephenson and Nicole Galland’s The Rise and Fall of D.O.D.O., which, because it featured (a) time travel, (b) excessive bureaucracy, and (c) the military-industrial complex, was a thoroughly enjoyable read!
