Books I've read recently:
Miles Errant by Lois McMaster Bujold
It was very good. I went through it in two evenings and poof it was awesome. Charismatic underdog takes on governments and corporations in a war-scifi world and wins.
The Cathedral & the Bazaar: Musings on Linux and Open Source by an Accidental Revolutionary by Eric S. Raymond
He makes sense of hacker culture. Which I thought was impossible. Win.
The Caryatids by Bruce Sterling
Crazy crazy cyberpunk post-apocalyptic scifi.
