The Curve of Binding Energy?
That sounds kinky.
The Deltoid Pumpkin Seed?
That does not.
'Day' is a vestigial mode of time measurement based on solar cycles. It's not applicable. I didn't get you anything.

We're Literary 2: To Read Makes Our Speaking English Good
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The Curve of Binding Energy is about the nuclear power industry, and the security and other dangers inherent in disposing of the waste. The Deltoid Pumpkin Seed is about a unique kind of aircraft, one that marries airplane technology with something like a zeppelin.

Huh. I liked it more when it sound like that book where they had the houses of sex professionals.
Still, I suppose it could be interesting.

This does sound interesting. The ocean does it all the time, but that is probably not what you are talking about.

It's one of the essays in McPhee's The Control of Nature, which I have kicking around not quite finished somewhere.

huh. Amazon informs me that Stephen R. Donaldson has a new Thomas Covenent book out. I guess he realized that no one wanted to read his ponderous rape fantasies.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Um. Okay, but (spoilers for whole series) isn't Thomas Covenant dead? Pushing up daisies? Pining for the fjords?

Wasn't Thomas Covenant a rape-oriented series too?

Ann, that's a ferret.
I wouldn't say that about the whole series, ita. But it depends on what you mean by "rape-oriented." A rape (with the anti-hero Covenant as rapist) occurs early in the first book of the first series, and there are significant consequences (you could even say its shadow hangs over the series). But that's the only one I recall.
So if "rape-oriented" means that a rape is a key event, yes. But if "rape-oriented" means that there's one rape after another, no.

I used oriented to try and back off themed. Not sure what the right word really is. Inspired? Tainted? Coloured?
