So What Are you Reading?: Generations

I'm a little over halfway through The Vulcan Academy Murders. The mystery is easy to solve, but it is fun spending time with these characters on Vulcan.

Oh heck, I could see who the murderer was before anybody even died. But yes, a fun book.

I tend to think Bruce's Watson may have been based on a cultural, though incorrect, memory of Watson instead of the textual Watson.

Kinda like the way the culture "remembers" Dr. Frankenstein having a hunchbacked assistant named Igor?

(Who appears nowhere in the novel, and is basically a conflation of two different characters from the original Karloff movies.)

BTW, does anybody have the slightest idea what "Sinnravian drad music" sounds like?

Like electroacoustic music composed by Stockhausen and played very slowly with long pauses.

I finished Knots and Crosses it’s a bit strange as a crime novel the revelation comes out of nowhere and it’s about someone we haven’t met in the book prior.
