Re: Amazon to adapt Iain M. Banks Space Opera Consider Phlebas into a new series.
This has always struck me as a book, and the rest of the Culture series as well, that needs to be adapted with a large budget. I think that this will be worth watching as long as Amazon fund it properly.

Scalzi has a pretty hefty back catalogue, although I have to admit I've probably read more (in word count terms) of his output on twitter that on his published novels ;)
I read sporadically and then usually in great heaping binges, so established series are pretty much my default. As it happens I have partners who read a lot more than me, so there's usually something in the house I've not come across before when I get into a reading mood.

He certainly has, I did quite a big binge read over the summer. So many authors seem to be a one trick pony, he seems one of the rare ones with lots of awesome ideas and the writing talent to get them down.

I'm a big player of EVE Online and the whole Culture universe has really appealed to me. As long as this is funded well and gets a good cast I'm up to watch it.
I couldn't stomach Children of Dune when they did it because the budget was so low and the cast (with a few exceptions) was so mediocre.
