About re-read a book by a favorite author I don't remember the later portions of.... [View all]
Author David Brin of the amazing both personable, and galactic spanning Uplift series; also wrote The Postman.
I liked Costner's Postman movie. Brin said he got the spirit of it right.
Serms he only covered the first part?
One can like, love, or feel meh, etc even with a favorite author's particular book.
So I'm so curious as to why I don't remember the rest. I can say writing this I do have some bits of memory of the text of the first part as he wrote it vs the movie.
Anyway, I just renewed my library card after a lapse a few weeks ago. It dawned on me after just returning an (my first) audio book, bc they didn't seem to have the ebook; oh, I should see if they have The Postman. And they did!
Reading to commence tonight. 👍
