That would be Ronn looking for them and me recommending them.

Too many "R" names!!! aaaaaaiiiigh! :)

His _Antarctica_ does something similar with that continent to what the
Mars Trilogy does with Mars too. Unfortunately, I got distracted by
other things while reading it and never got back into it. It was
certainly good enough that I'll give it another go eventually though.

I don't recommend reading it more than once cover to cover. I found it lacking.

I've just started Spider Robinson's Callahan Series. Pretty good.
Also finished the new OSC Bean book. Not so good.
