    Yeah for sure! On the other hand it being such a dense, philosophical book means it really stands up to and benefits from a re-read! And the audiobook has a great narrator IMO.

      Well, this conversation inspired me to finally read The Colonel, which reminded me of how great some of Watts’ ideas could be. Guess I’ll have to get a copy of Echopaxia next.

        Oh damn I didn’t know about that! I’ll be reading that this week, thanks for the link!

        Echopaxia was definitely different, I wasn’t crazy about it my first read through but it had me shook pretty good my second read through. I highly recommend it!

          I think if you’ve already read Echopraxia then The Colonel won’t tell you much new, it’s more like a transition between the two novels.
