Yesterday, an introduction to Singularitarianism was published on Geektime.
In general, there's a lot of good fiction on GT. I especially liked the completed cycle "The Thin World". Currently, "Gene of Chimeras" is good. But in general, the entire "reading hall" tag is quite readable. I also published my little piece of writing under that tag once.
Right now, I'm reading "Great Expectations" by Charles Dickens. It's too early to draw conclusions; I've only read a small part of the book, but overall it's interesting and amusing. The first-person narrative style is a bit tedious, but on the other hand, it makes you feel closer to the narrator.
Regarding Pratchett, with whom I've now finished (and there are almost no books left)
Terry Pratchett
The Colour of Magic -> The Light Fantastic -> Equal Rites -> Mort -> Sourcery -> Wyrd Sisters -> Guards! Guards! -> Eric -> Witches Abroad -> Small Gods (10/10) -> Lords and Ladies -> Men at Arms -> Soul Music -> Interesting Times -> Maskerade -> Feet of Clay -> Hogfather -> Jingo -> The Last Continent -> The Fifth Elephant -> The Truth -> Thief of Time (To be honest, the stories about Rincewind become increasingly boring towards the end. "The Last Continent" still had some spark in places, but "The Truth" is only interesting because it's a crossover, and the plot and characters are shown rather blandly) -> Night Watch (unlike Rincewind, the cycle about the Watch becomes even better over time, and as a culmination, we have this wonderful work! 10/10) -> Thud! -> Snuff -> Going Postal -> Making Money -> I Shall Wear Midnight (as I said, it's not the same anymore... Yes, here we meet one of the most interesting characters from Pratchett's early books, but it doesn't really save it. The book doesn't *consist* of truly great moments, as many of Pratchett's books do; it simply includes such moments, and you come across them from time to time, nothing more...) -> Raising Steam (an important book for Discworld, but I found it relatively boring) -> Snuff/Vimes (well, this is more like the old, good Terry! The Watch isn't dead!) -> The Science of Discworld I (this isn't a work of fiction; it's a fun piece of popular science. It's a bit more difficult to read than other books, but the experience is very interesting. I didn't learn any new facts, but the point is the interesting presentation. Maybe I'll take on the second and third parts later) -> Unseen Academicals -> Truth -> The Wee Free Men (a short story) -> Death and What Comes Next (similarly) -> Monstrous Regiment -> The Shepherd's Crown (well... It's okay. But it's still the last thing Pratchett wrote in his life.)
Towards the end, I seem to have completely confused the order, and I didn't even read some of them ("Pyramids," for example), but overall... It's okay. There was no strong misunderstanding of what was happening anywhere.
I've read 41 books and stories, and according to my calculations, there are about six large books left. I don't plan to read them for now, but later...
