I will certainly check it out! Isn't it strange what kinda reaches out and gives you a big impression? I'm interested in your opinion once you've finished.

I am always glad to hear of books that leave this kind of impact on people, and I've heard about the Asia Saga before, but I forgot about it. Very eager to start. Thanks for the recommendation

I would recommend the following books I have read last year and really liked the ideas behind:

"The Road Not Taken" is a short story by Harry Turtledove

Remembrance of Earth's Past trilogy by Liu Cixin

And this one is autobiographical by one of the smartest men of our time: A Man For All Markets by Edward O. Thorp
