That was a good day. Through to Edinburgh to pick up a copy of @cstross latest 'The Regicide Report' from Transreal Fiction, pint in Greyfriars Bobby's Bar (full of tourists, to no-ones surprise) and a tour around the Edinburgh Hacklab.
Now devoured said book. Makes a suitably semi-apocalyptic ending to the Laundry Files. And I need to go and read up on Operation BARMAID, which is a bit of Cold War insanity I hadn't heard of...

to sign them without any maims.
@cstross Everyone knows vampires arenโt real, man
Just finished "The Regicide Report" by @cstross
Blimey. More twists and turns than the original adventure game maze of twisty passages
Bravo, Charlie. What a way to bow out a host of characters. Although, of course, Bob's final words could hold true!

(Yep, Iโm rereading the #LaundryFiles by @cstross as a refresher for #TheRegicideReport)
I just gulped down #TheRegicideReport in 24 hours! It was very epic and satisfyingly ties a lot of plotlines and characters from the previous #LaundryFiles books together.
However, it has left me a bit melancholy. I guess I was hoping that @cstross would have some fresh ideas on how to definitively deal with monsters who have taken over your government and are indiscriminately killing people to further their own selfish goals. You know, topical advice.
