I just finished rereading the Wandering Engineer series, I had to after reading “13 Degrees of Separation” and being reminded how much I enjoyed the series. So I was ready when “Pirates Bane” came out.  This story is as good as his previous novels and is his best edited novel yet, though you don’t read Chris’s books for the editing.  His books make you think, “Here I am, just sitting back, accepting the world as it is, watching technology and our civilization just run down, like a character in the series.”  In each novel the Engineer wanders into town and with a little technology boost and a lot of inspiration, civilization starts progressing again. This book is science fiction, but it inspires me to see our world differently and at least look around for changes I could make to get our civilization innovating again.
