What book is currently on your nightstand?
The Hercules Text

Who is the author?
Jack McDevitt

What genre?
Scifi

How do you like it?
So far it is not great. Pretty slow going. Not much scifi. Lots of talk.

Would you recommend it to others?
I am only about a quarter of the way through, but so far nothing is really happening. So unless something drastically changes, I probably would not recommend it.

That's kind of sad. I read Chindi by Jack McDevitt years ago, only to find out later that it was smack in the middle of a series. I remember enjoying it though.
