This used book with a cigarette ad in the middle says otherwise.

I finished up Island Kill which is the third in the Cybernarc series, yes, there are more of these. It was fun. It has vigilante vengeance of an unstoppable robot splattering brains of the worst people out there. Such vigilantism shouldn’t exist in reality, but is wonderful in fiction. #books

I’m reading Cybernarc as my first book of 2025. I wanted silly over the top action and shooting. I didn’t want the sexual assault. Publish date is 1992, so I’m 30+ years late, but I’m still complaining that it is gross and unnecessary in this type of book.

The World Swappers by John Brunner. Published 1959. The quote on the cover, “Very enjoyable, very competent.” Things were a lot less hyperbolic then. I wish we turned down our current language to be a little more moderate.

I finished up this book today. It was a cozy lighthearted romp. I can’t wait to live through my own fascist paradise.

This was my 50th book read this year.

So, the protagonist is in an S&M relationship with a demonic typewriter… it’s only chapter 2.

Merely reading this book made me stink of musk, gunpowder, and day old cigarette smoke. I think the hyper-1970s-masculinity was just too much for me. I don’t recommend it, if you could even find it.
