While I´m finishing a short but rather troublesome translation job for National Geographic, and also doing a short review for The Fix and three more for this blog (coming soon, coming real soon), I´ve had the pleasure to receive three books in the last two days. Ursula K. LeGuin´s Lavinia and Charles Stross´s Halting State (which I bought) and Adam Roberts´s The History of Science Fiction, which was kindly sent to me by Steven Hall, from Palgrave. Thanks to Steven and also to Adam, whose Splinter I had already reviewed here.
Contrary to the spirit of book-porn-blogging, I´m not posting any photos of the books on my table because my cellphone camera´s images are really crappy and I need to buy a real camera as soon as I can. Sorry about that, but probably next week I´ll have real, honest-to-god homemade, photoshoppable images. :-)
