Aaron's Book Page

Most of my books are non-fiction, probably about 2000 volumes total. A lot of computer science & software engineering, but other stuff too, I have a reasonable DSP library, a nice collection on Sikhism, and a shelve or two each on music theory, cooking, historical computing, cosmology... (and I can't remember since they are for the most part in boxes in my den.)

If you are in Portland, you might want to come to a Portland Science Fiction Society event.

Fiction

All of my fiction titles (about 300 volumes) were destroyed in a house fire in '87. I recently found an inventory I had made of them as a teenager, and have began restocking (and re-reading) them, limited mostly by the rate which I can find them on Powell's shelves. Send me some email if you have something interesting to say about them. There are some contemporary authors like Hogan I've also developed an interest in, and they are interfiled with the rest.
