Only a couple months after I buy the book Microsoft has to go and put the eBook up on it’s site for free. Shame… wish my supposed ESP actually worked a little better, I could’ve seen this coming. Of course I could now focus all my psychic energy in trying to visualize whether or not I’ll receive a copy of “How Would You Move Mount Fuji?” or if I should buy that one too? In any case I’d recommend this short and easy read, especially since it’s free. I’m reading Cat’s Cradle for the second time on my iPaq 5550 which I bought at the PDC, seems like I can actually read faster when I’m doing it on that. I never liked turning pages anyway .

Cat’s Cradle
by Kurt Vonnegut
from RosettaBooks

If any single novel of Kurt Vonnegut’s can represent his unique voice and freewheeling imagination, it is probably the wildly funny and provocative Cat’s Cradle, published in 1963. Though it might not be his most substantial or popular novel, Cat’s Cradle is a perfect vehicle for his idiosyncratic style and his kaleidoscopic view of the modern world.
