Cited Quotes

“Beauty is truth, truth beauty,”—that is all
Ye know on earth, and all ye need to know.

—Keats, John. Ode on a Grecian Urn. 1819.

An Outside Context Problem was the sort of thing most civilizations encountered just once, and which they tended to encounter rather in the same way a sentence encountered a full stop. The usual example given to illustrate an Outside Context Problem was imagining you were a tribe on a largish, fertile island; you’d tamed the land, invented the wheel or writing or whatever, the neighbors were cooperative or enslaved but at any rate peaceful and you were busy raising temples to yourself with all the excess productive capacity you had, you were in a position of near-absolute power and control which your hallowed ancestors could hardly have dreamed of and the whole situation was just running along nicely like a canoe on wet grass… when suddenly this bristling lump of iron appears sailless and trailing steam in the bay and these guys carrying long funny-looking sticks come ashore and announce you’ve just been discovered, you’re all subjects of the Emperor now, he’s keen on presents called tax and these bright-eyed holy men would like a word with your priests.

—Banks, Iain M. Excession. Orbit. 1996.

Book cover of Red Rising.
Red Rising by Pierce Brown

Red Rising, by Pierce Brown, is the first book in the Red Rising Trilogy. It follows Darrow, a Red miner on Mars who discovers his entire caste has been enslaved, and joins a revolution by infiltrating the Gold ruling class.

Book cover of Sunstone Imperative.
Sunstone Imperative by Scott Warren

Sunstone Imperative, by Scott Warren, is the sixth book in the War Horses series. Returning to the action-packed roots of the earlier books, it drops the Chevaliers into the middle of a raid against a Wyking stronghold to open the gates for a full-scale invasion.

Book cover of The Rise of Endymion.
The Rise of Endymion by Dan Simmons

The Rise of Endymion, by Dan Simmons, is the fourth and final book in the Hyperion Cantos. It concludes the journey of Aenea and Raul as they race to unlock the secret of the Void Which Binds before the Pax can silence them. It resolves the mysteries of the Shrike and the TechnoCore while arguing that the Church’s immortality is a trap: to truly live, humanity must be willing to die.

Book cover of Endymion.
Endymion by Dan Simmons

Endymion, by Dan Simmons, is the third book in the Hyperion Cantos. It follows a new cast of characters—Aenea, Raul, and Bettik—as they flee the oppressive forces of the Pax via a raft on the River Tethys. Set centuries after the earlier books, the story reveals a galaxy reshaped by the Church and its dark covenant of immortality.

Black-and-white photograph of a stack of four old, thick books seen from the side, showing their spines and page edges. The books are richly decorated with embossed floral and geometric patterns, worn leather bindings, and visible aging. One book has a small handwritten label on its spine, and another is secured with a metal clasp. The overall appearance suggests antique or historical volumes.
My Favorite Books of 2025
I read 45 books in 2025, diving deep into sci-fi classics and modern hits. From the Hyperion Cantos and the final Culture novel to the philosophical action of Murderbot, plus one literary masterpiece that is actually a video game, here are my absolute favorites of the year.
