Mount Hutt, in the Southern Alps of New Zealand - not quite Neptune, but damn gorgeous nonetheless ^ - ^
Neptune: a planet on the outer edges of our solar system. Population: Me, and whatever thoughts batter their way to freedom. Please keep your hands inside the vehicle at all times... Didn't you always want your own planet?

* It is Bliss Here: Letters Home, 1939-1945 - Myles Hildyard
1. How to Achieve True Greatness
- Baldesar Castiglione
Wonderful! Vibrantly intelligent, eloquent and with a distinct sense of prestige (as it would, having been written in Renaissance Italy). It reminded me of the highest dreams of mankind, with all the fervour and idealism that phrase implies.
2. The Grand Design - John Marco
Book II of the Tyrants and Kings series, this is just as harsh, compelling and readable as the first.

What have I done
To desire so much?
What debt have I repaid
To be so full forgiven?
Here in this night
Alive with fire,
Thick with angel wings,
It is not my thoughts
that gather and conspire,
It is my soul that sings:
What mind has guessed
The spirit knows:
Though lights may dim,
The door is never closed.
