Two items: A question and a FYI
1. Question: Anyone know if Egan's novella _Oceanic_ has been
released? Amazon.com does not show it as a separate title.
Was it part of a compilation?
2. Greg Egan's new book entitled _Teranesia_ is slated to be
released in October 1999. You can pre-order a copy at:
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/006105092X/qid=923583110/sr=1-6/002-1424235-0997022
According to Egan, the book is about "evolution, the Indian
Rationalists Association, the breakup of Indonesia, quantum
mechanics, and sex." Additionally, Greg Bear's new book,
_Darwin's Radio_ is due out May 1999 (UK)/September 1999 (US).
Bear stated the book contains "a new and startling take on human
evolution. No aliens, no mutations, just sex and reproduction--
on a species level." Bear also stated there was a lot of Hollywood
interest in the initial outline of the book. Maybe Egan should
pitch _Permutation City_ in the wake of _The Matrix_.
