Dear God yes, i forgot about those books, i mean, some parts were cool, where there were actual plot happenings or sex scenes or philosphical debates, but fuck, 90% of those books was just scientific jargon, absolute drivel. i honestly couldn't care less what the fucking chemical composition of rock IRX 2700 is.
