Nope to ebooks
I tried out the Sony ebook reader - one of the better readers out there - and returned it. The concept will eventually win - even now you can store 400 books on one reader - but the grey-on-grey e-ink screen ain't quite there yet. Once they go black on white I'll try again; for now, it's still Gutenberg paper for me.

SFSite.com's John Enzinas reviews Mantids
"The real star of the book is not the narrator but the writing. Dakron is a poet and his skill with words makes this book shine. He pulls all of your senses in while describing a world awash with giant, man-crazy, killer mutant bugs who think like the humans they once were. How can you not respect that level of skill?.... Read this book for the prose .... It's worth it."
