Som vanleg har Ladybug sin faste smakebitserie gåande (med eit endå søtare innslag enn vanleg), og som så ofte elles så hiv eg meg på.
Dagens smakebit er starten på novella The Tenth Muse av Tad Williams i novellesamlinga The New Space Opera 2:
When I first got to know Balcescu, I didn’t like him much. A snob, that’s what I thought he was, an way too stuck on himself. I was right, too. One of the things that drove me crazy is that he talked like George Sanders, all upper-crust, but I didn’t believe for a moment he actually knew who George Sanders was. Old Earth movies wouldn’t have been high-brow enough for him.
He also loved the sound of his own voice, whether the person he was talking to had time to listen or not.
“There you are, Mr. Jatt,” he said one day, stopping me as I was crossing the observation deck. “I’ve been looking for you. I have a question.”
