Some months ago, I was recommended the book as a good source of entertainment from this section of the forums. I finally got my hands on it (the 6 book trilogy? ... I think..
) and I thought that I'd give back my opinion. ( I'm beginning the restaurant book now)
For reading material, it is the second most useless piece of garbage that I've ever encountered!! But due to the nature of the uncertainty principle and the fact that the improbability engine would recalculate my odds, I will say with an utmost lack of sincerity that it will never join the ranks of my reading list.
Due to an entirely unrelated matter, there will always be a vacant spot at No2 of my recommended reading list.
There is a quote from that book that I find most fascinating. Or, is that supposed to be a lack of interest to a philosopher ?? Here it is,
"We demand rigidly defined areas of doubt and uncertainty !!" -Vroomfondel (who demands that he not be called that, but iterates that it is a solid fact, that, that is , his name)
(The above quote has now been pinned onto my wall, for me to gaze at, everyday.
)
What I like most about the book is that unlike some other novels I read, this one has a magical ability to permit me to put it down and pick it back up very easily. As a result, it's my bed-time book. I start reading it when I lie down in bed about to sleep, I get drowsy, I close the book, sleep and the process repeats the next night.

I really should come by this neighbourhood more often. (I usually like hanging around the programming section)
