Just wanted to say that you'll be soon receiving an envelope from Romania, containing issue 2 of Lumi Virtuale, with a review of the whole Neanderthal Parallax trilogy, by yours truly. Another one, with a review of Mindscan, will follow as soon as I can get the book (I've already found someone interested to publish this review).
Best from Romania.

Reading the books was a pleasure... And Mindscan will be another pleasure, I'm certain.
I heard there's a Romanian edition of Calculating God on the way, from Leda/Corint? Or was it Flashforward? Or both?

I'm honestly not sure; I know we made a Romanian sale recently, but I lose track of which books have sold where. :)

Hi, Horia nicola ursu! Checking my records, I find that it's Calculating God that I've sold to Romania.
