Om mig I've lived all my life to the South of London and been reading since 1938. I blame Enid Blyton & her Sunny stories. Now in my seventies I have rarely disposed of a book in my life and my current shed/computer room/CD store now contains over 4000 books.It drives my wife mad! When not reading, surfing or listening to all kinds of music - Mozart to Morton (Jelly Roll) I edit a newsletter for our local branch of University of the Third Age.

Om mit bibliotek A succession of enthusiasms through my life has left me with a collection of books on each topic. Somehow I have a metre of shelf on the I Ching and related, 12ft of poetry, and a foot of Richard Feynman

Not just the Corvo connection, but an interesting match of titles between our libraries. More than you might think, as hardly any of my "library" is listed.
It was the F. G. Rayer book that did it - A book that really impressed me when I first read it, probably when I was still at primary school. My father was a subscriber to the SFBC, and so I was reading their books as soon as I could reach them on the shelf - Asimov, Bradbury, Stapleton first: Then as I got older I moved on to "Janet and John".
I was also very interested in radio and electronics as a teenager: There was an F. G. Rayer who was a prolific author of construction articles in the British enthusiast magazines of the time, and I always wondered if it was the same person.

I assume you meant an unintentional blueprint. Orwell was trying to warn us, but yes, when you explain any trick, tool or weapon that you fear the enemy might use against you, you always run the risk of actually giving him the idea in the first place, which he then utilizes thereby substantiating your original fears.

Can't work out how to submit a review, but has anyone else noticed that Thursday Next is hiding in Mary Mary's flying boat?
