Thrilling Tales of Astrophysics

Over in LiveJournal Land, James Nicoll is pining for the good old days: I'm going through one of my "I would kill for some new SF" phases, SF in this case being defined in a narrow and idiosyncratic way. In particular, I want the modern version of those old SF stories where SF writers, having just…

Best Novels of the 1990's

Over in LiveJournal Land, James Nicoll (SF reviewer and walking True Lab Story) is discussing the best novels of the 1990's.

This was quite the undertaking…
