I'm listening to Angry Planet again on audiobook before I pick up Common Orbit. It's so feel good. The perfect comfort food.

So I just finished Diamond Star by Catherine Asaro and I do believe this was the first time I've read a sci-fi book where the central plot is about an exiled prince becoming a holo-rock star, power ballads and all.

And since my taste in music seems to be perennially stuck in the 80s, is there anything similar out there? The only other major use of music (like this, anyway) in sci-fi I can think of at the moment is from Macross/Robotech...

VVV: Well, I was thinking more along the lines of stuff in book form, but that still looks pretty awesome and I need to see it now.

This is going even further off topic but if you want a cool synthwave band with an 80s sci fi vibe check out Gunship. The best songs are "The Mountain" and "Tech Noir".

If nothing else, someone who actually knows the slightest thing about music is probably to the benefit of it. Not my first choice of things to be fixed but it's on the list.

If I could fix The Kingkiller Chronicles by only altering or getting rid of two things, they would be 1) every word of the entire series and 2) Patrick Rothfuss
