can’t say a word about it without giving anything away.
Dreamsnake – Vonda McIntyre – The book. I would love to type so much about this book, but I won’t. Beggars in Spain – Nancy Kress – This is the first part of a trilogy. If you like the characters, you will like Green and Blue. Red Mars – Kim Stanley Robinson – The Mars trilogy, Red Mars, Green Mars, Blue Mars, is a tale of the first settlers on Mars. Rainbows End is a singular book and universe, and it plays with many current technologies and ideas we are working with today. Both of those won many awards and should be read. Rainbows End – Vernor Vinge – He wrote two other books, Fire upon the Deep and A Deepness in the Sky in the same universe. Hyperion – Dan Simmons – Somewhat similar to The Canterbury Tales in its structure, I would love to type so much about this book or the trilogy. Both are homages to original works of similar titles, apropos. Her other book, Everything but the Dog is fun-tastic. A time traveler goes back to one of England’s plagues. Doomsday Book – I suggest this piece for how powerful, loving, and out of the ordinary it is. I am hyper-sensitive to spoilers as well as reviews tainting the reading experience.)

(Here is the list with only the general text remaining. And yes, like I typed, if I have any other old friends out there, I will stay within the request.) Just getting to type to the friend, made me feel thirty years younger. ( Edit: BTW - We are both in our 60's, late in our high level careers, degreed, well read, but my friend hadn't touched SciFi for over thirty years. I should probably just recommend 3-5 books, not two pages. I skewed it for their education and career, some of our shared background. What is that old, super powerful song? "I Almost Cut My Hair?" I am not cutting my geek for anyone anymore. It went over like a nut case (probably) because they replied with a simple "Thank you."īut, you know what? That's okay. I worked on it for a couple of days, and I was finally able to keep it under two pages. Know any others? Message #scifi and let your friendly mods know! Imaginary Mindscapes - The Art of Imagination.
