I have been reading the works of Kage Baker, who has written a series of novels about "The Company." I just finished the most recent one last night and it was delightful: Time travel, cyborgs, secret corporations running the world, pirates, true love, genetic engineering, neo-puritanical 24th century denizens (who have banned cheese, chocolate, booze, and most other things), and so forth.

Her first novel, In the Garden of Iden wasn't my most favorite book in the world, but the series is worth sticking with.

Also, her other books are pretty fun, and Mother Aegypt contains one of my most favorite short stories ever, "How They Tried to Talk Indian Tony Down," which is a scream.

Any other Kage Baker fans out there?
