Ive got Stand on Zanzibar by John Brunner to read for my local reading group. With generally not reading Sci-Fi it's going to be new one for me.

I barely got off first base, this was just awful.
I'll try again near the time of the next reading group meeting and see if I get any further

Quicksilver is turning out to be a real nutcracker - tiny script, 900 pages and 400 pages still to go

But is it long winded or does it move pretty fast over those pages?

I'm reading "The Warlord Of Kor" by Terry Carr. This was written in 1963 and is set far enough into the future so that it isn't really too dated. The only problem I have was the references to non-addicting cigarettes after we've populated several other galaxies.
