This week I am reading Feet of Clay which is yet again by Terry Pratchet.
This has a very interesting plot and reminds me a little of Bicentenial man meets Roots.
The main characters this time are known as Golem which are a sort of crude man-like drone.
I guess the nearest we would come to in human terms would be a Yunok although I find the idea that their life purpose is written on a piece of paper that is kept in their heads a little too much like a programming language and the term 'Garbage in ,Garbage out' would be very apt .
I am plagued by the whirring of the spare laptop at present.
It is virus checking which takes a few hours so i turn it all on and then disable the screen to save energy and just let it get on with it.
