It's been a few years since I read them.<br /><br />I wasn't aware that he was working on a third book in the series, so it came as a surprise when I read your comment about it.Fredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10233846613173866140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6331135384154117296.post-17659504526841762382012-12-08T01:38:00.874+00:002012-12-08T01:38:00.874+00:00Yes Fred, I recall The Pastel City series too, alt...Yes Fred, I recall The Pastel City series too, although I've not been keeping up with his work since then.<br /><br />According to the review, Empty Space is the conclusion of the Kefahuchi Tract trilogy and features many of the characters from Light and Nova Swing but "extends and refines their relationships". It is a multi-stranded story with one strand set in present-day London and others in the future, with them all being brought together by the end.<br /><br />Prometheus seems to be getting mixed reviews, so I'll be interested to see what I make of it.<br />Anthony G Williamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00798830903236765181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6331135384154117296.post-52004707578427135092012-12-07T16:10:30.263+00:002012-12-07T16:10:30.263+00:00Thanks for the review.

He's a longtime favorite of mine, ever since I encountered _The Pastel City_, and then had to chase down the rest of the Viriconium series.<br /><br />I saw _Prometheus_ and thought it not bad at all, but wasn't sure whether to call it a prequel or a remake of _Alien_. I did a brief review of it also.<br />Fredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10233846613173866140noreply@blogger.com
