Im hoping to get
Absolute Sandman by Neil Gaiman for christmas. If youve never heard of him hes an amazing fantasy writer, and this is a compilation comics from the Sandman series, which he wrote.
Currently, Im reading textbooks as november is the month that all the profs decide to assign an essay at once. I just finished with
The Retreat of the State, which is about interconnecting markets with politics. Im just starting some selected readings from
Life in the Wires, which is "an interdisciplinary anthology on the future of technoculture and the revolutionary impact of the Internet on media, technology, culture and politics." Its very interesting stuff, and anyone interested should pick it up and / or visit
CTheory.net, which is the journal that published it.
