It’s not the amount of money that’s exciting. it’s the fact that he’s going to be bringing out one book a year for the next 10 years. Which as impossible as it might sound. He’s had 11 books published since 2000.

I’ve read Revelation Space and I think it’s probably time to dust down the copy of Chasm City.
