Just FYI: Grande Jonction has also been translated into English and Del Rey will be releasing it in the near future.

Excellent news; loved CI and GJ is read on arrival - hopefully next week - but I will buy the English edition too. Dantec rocks

Agreed! I'd love to see a film made of Cosmos Incorporated, too. Hopefully if Babylon A.D. does well, some studio will grab CI.

Red Siren is done as a movie and it's all action; hope Babylon will do well.

That chase thing at the beginning, with the crashes and Boom annoyed me, but I was already laughing a lot from the introduction of Lena to the crew, that I was willing to overlook it.

I can see it working as (unintended) comic SF. The Lena character really irritated me. She came across as really whiny especially for someone that's supposed to have achieved as much as she had.
