EVE Online as a novel

While we're all waiting for our very first EVE Online novel from Tony Gonzales (Theodicy and Ruthless), I was thinking current science fiction novels that remind us of the EVE universe. Which novels have you read which reminded you of EVE's setting, its feel, it vastness and decadence?

If there's one series that does this for me it would be "The Gap Cycle" from Stephen R. Donaldson. It does so not necessarily because of the story or setting, but much more so because of the mood, the smell of things I would even say. It's a cold, ruthless and violent universe and that reminds me a lot of EVE. I strongly recommend the series if you have not read it.

But what about you! Have you read any novels that seem to capture a part of EVE? If so, then please let me know. I'd be very interested in having a look and then letting you know.

EVE Online: Theodicy (Chapter 7)

And here's the last chapter in the Theodicy novella. Now I can finally print it all, bind it, then read it in a comfy sofa, sipping a warm cup of coffee.

EVE Online: Theodicy, a novella

The prologue to what appears to be another great novella from Tony Gonzales is now available on the EVE Online Backstory page. I remember racing through his previous novella, Ruthless, and being completely drawn into its story line. In the latest issue of E:ON there's an interview with him where we learn a bit more about this upcoming great sci-fi writer. Seems there's even a possible novel in the works. Who knows!

From what I've read so far, it looks as though I'll be loosing myself again in some great story telling!

Have a good read: Theodicy - Prologue (pdf)
Oh, and mark you calendars: Chapters 1-3 will be released on February 10th, Chapters 4-6 on February 17th, and Chapter 7 on February 24th.
