Weekly Book Wrap Up
Nineteen Eighty-Four by George OrwellMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Very flat boring characters, but they are a product of their environment. The language in this book is what I think is the most important thing in this novel and how it is used for control.

Two Planets: A Novel by Kurd Lasswitz by Kurd LaßwitzMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
A cross between an adventure story and a story of colonization with a bit of religion thrown in when referring to numedom. Since this is a translation it is missing 40% or more of the original to the story, makes me think I should have studied German in school. The missing parts do add to the story I've been told but over all this is an interesting take on martians and other planets from the 19th century.
