Doktor Avalanche posted:Miles Cameron has been very hit or miss for me, no inbetween i liked masters & mages, also the chivalry series of historical fiction. Tom Swan lands in the miss category, along with age of bronze.

FPyat posted:I'm digging into The History of Science Fiction by Adam Roberts, which sits at a nice thorough 500 pages. Chapter 1 has to deal with the thorny question of defining just what science fiction is, so instead of fiction the writers in discussion are Feyerabend, Heidegger, and Harraway. The book will proceed to spend a juicy 200 pages on the history of SF before 1900. If you want a more personal, essay style history of Sci Fi after this, try 'the dreams our stuff is made of' by thomas m disch - it's filtered through his lens, a gay progressive writer and editor of novels and poetry. Won a hugo.

NmareBfly posted:I didn't realize there was one! I enjoyed but didn't totally love DODO 1, any reviews on 2? 1 had some neat ideas but kinda meandered then ended badly, so I'm not opposed to a continuation but how is it? i didn't know it existed either but it seems to be a solo effort from NS' writing partner Nicole Galland. Given how little i've enjoyed his later work that might be a plus tbh.
