I've really enjoyed his novels that grapple with how we can make computer technology work for us rather than for large corporations. His next book, The Lost Cause, is being called "the first great YIMBY novel," a solarpunk look at a post Green New Deal society.

Sounds like an awesome book. I am not so much into audio-books though, but an ebook version is certainly on my list to get now.

[–] ianrbuck@slrpnk.net 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The Kickstarter has an option for getting the ebook!

[–] poVoq@slrpnk.net 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah, I saw that after writing my comment and backed that tier. Looking forward to get the DRM free ebook.

It's not yet out, or is it?

EDIT: Checked on Amazon and it seems to be out on "Publication date ‏ : ‎ November 14, 2023".
