posted a few threads ago but fuck me this shit is good. It's definitely a /lit/ book; the Greeks, based monk life, capital-t Technology is bad, etc. I just came from reading some Bakker too, so I'm still getting my philosophy fix.

I've been told by some Bakker fans to read Black Company, too, so I'll get on that soon. Hope you boys are enjoying it.

I'm really late to the party but this shit is suckin' me right in. Feel like I'm reading some Bakker, but less angsty. Stephenson is ripping off of Greek thought pretty hard, but I guess that's the point if he's trying to talk about the problem of universals.

For those that read this but didn't know much about Greek thought, was it still good? Easy to follow?
