Here again, Dee, are the books I read recently. If you are on Facebook, friend
me, and go to my Info page for an expanded list of books and authors (and of
course, anything by David Brin!~)
If you like short stories, read the Best of the Year anthologies. Also Terry
Bisson's "Bears Discover Fire" is great. You can't go wrong with the Hugo and
Nebula nominees.
My favorite sub genres include Hi tech, near future, cutting edge hard SF,
space opera, cyberpunk, steampunk, alternative history, historical fiction, and
urban fantasy. I just finished Alistair Reynold's "Terminal World" which is a
mix of space opera and steam punk.
Have fun!~)
