New reading materials (sf and f)

by amd on May 2, 2009

I was just complaining on Twitter that I’m all out of Charlie Stross and I need some new scifi to read. I am a pretty avid scifi reader (to say the least: it’s like crack cocaine to me).

Ross, Janet and Joanna had some great suggestions and we had a good chat about various options. This blog post is mainly a Note to Self for me on what they suggested so I can fill up my shopping cart next time I’m book shopping.

Here’s suggestions of stuff (that I haven’t read only) so far:

  • Cowl by Neal Asher
  • Grass by Sherri S Tepper
  • Simon R Green (both fantasy and scifi were good esp Deathstalker and Hawk & Fisher)
  • The End of Mr Y by Scarlett Thomas (some comments on that: “most perplexing book I have read in a while” and “@JoannaSchaff oh dear Jo that’s just cruel, I know it’s Alister but still, actually given that it is him it’s worse” – hmmmmmm

Ok, give me more.
