After a conversation with friends and listening to Ancillary Justice and Ancillary Sword for the past weeks on the way to work (and the Murderbot Diaries before that) - I think I've got how I want to do player character robots in Traveller.

I started #AncillaryJustice by #AnnLeckie because it was on a list of books that were said to be similar to #StarWars: #Andor. The resemblance is interesting.
In a space fairing collection of civilizations, the Radch rules as an empire...

Ann Leckie: Ancillary Justice
I tried reading it when it first came out and bounced of hard. 10 years later I finally finished and very much enjoyed it in the end. Modern space opera at its best 🚀🪐

357 followers · 1499 posts · Server mastodon.scotJust finished Ann Leckie’s Ancillary Justice trilogy. Hugely enjoyable. Science fiction’s ability to present different possibilities is so welcome & her AIs are very much more nuanced than present debate would allow.
It is one of the reasons I love Iain M Banks’ Culture world - the AIs were the quirky stars of his novels!
PS please don’t @ me with a flood of techie detail!

Gotta love a February half-term for allowing uninterrupted reading time.

Fantastic page turner with very interesting relationships and world building. The AI characters were very original and clever; Breq, the protagonist, is awesome. I am looking forward to finding out what happens next in the series! Language, citizen!

As for the current favourite #SciFi author, I'll say #AnnLeckie. I really enjoyed #AncillaryJustice.

I’m a #GeekDad with two boys.
I’m current serving military, but don’t know any secrets!
I got to infosec.exchange just ahead of the main wave.
Somehow, through some early conversations and comments I managed to #RedTeam my way onto some lists of ‘good people to follow’.
On Twitter I stood at the back of the room and looked to people like you for information and perspective. Now it seems I’ve moved further into the room and people are looking at me and it feels like I’m taking the class ‘Introduction to#ImposterSyndrome’.
While I don’t work in #InfoSec I do relate strongly to the community and learn from you all.
I know enough to know it’s always #DNS (or #BGP)
At home I run #pfSense, #HomeAssistant and feed #ADS-B data to #FlightAware and #FlightRadar24.
My favourite #TWIT episodes are when @MikeElgan and @jeffjarvis go head to head.

Ooooh, Ann Leckie has a new book coming out next year and it has a title!
Translation State
https://www.orbitbooks.net/2022/10/21/acquisition-announcement-translation-state-by-ann-leckie/
Its set in the the Imperial Radch universe, with a new slate of characters. I'm excited.
Honestly, I've liked books she's recommended better than her own, but I read them regardless. :D
