Depends on the scifi you like (futuristic, science fantasy, and so on). The book version of Doctor Who's "The Dalek Masterplan" is excellent. For the fantasy side of SF, anything by Alan Garner is brilliant, though he's been writing a very long time. His early books were aimed at kids/early teens (but are still good reads), his later stuff is aimed for an adult audience. Diane Duane and Katherine Kerr are also very strong authors on what I'd call their "primary" stuff. For "vanilla" sci-fi, it's tough as I tend to be very firm on what I consider hard-core sci-fi. I have to say the very best pure sci-fi books I've read are extremely old and dated ("Eight Keys to Eden", "A For Andromeda", "The Black Cloud", "Trouble with Lichen", "The Chrysalids", the Foundation trilogy, "Spaceship Medic" and "Citizen of the Galaxy"). For sci-fi novellas, I do suggest finding an online copy of "The Dark Wheel", a companion story to the computer game "Elite". It's a good story in its own right. Not

You must be my book twin. When I lived there, I'd drive up to Bellingham to sell my books...there is a great used book store up there. They don't buy everything, and the books must be in very good shape, but they do pay good prices for what they do buy. Henderson Books, that's it, on Grand Ave. And it's a nice drive up, esp. if you go by way of Chuckanut Drive. I left Seattle to move back east because my Dad had cancer, and my parents needed my help. He has recovered, but Mom and Dad are in their mid-80's, and still need me to do things for them.

You are such a smart kid! You can be anything you want to be with your life. Some adults aren't as articulated as you are. :D Anyway, the boys and I are doing SO well. My first-grader is about to be tested for the gifted program at school (which is what he needs. He's sooooo bored). My 2-yr-old just covered himself in milk (and refuses to take a nap). Last, but not least, my baby zooms around the house in his walker and gets into EVERYTHING! I love my life. XD XD XD How about you? How are things going with school this year?

I've read Dorothy Dunnett's mysteries that were popular a couple decades ago -- clever and amusing, and seeming now op. I haven't read her historicals, though a friend of mine recommended them highly. What is your academic field? I wish I'd know you when I still lived in the Seattle area.

I started The Name of the Wind, and then got sidetracked by something else...I need to go back to it. Yes, I agree with you, that is a deep and layered work. I do need to go back to it, when I have longer stretches of uninterrupted time. YOu seem like a thoughtful reader, with excellent taste, so I have to ask; do you write fiction? (You don't have to answer if you do and don't want to talk about it on this forum.)

ohai, YesPlis, yes, i read and loved Tales of the Otori. Wonderful. For fiction right now, I've been reading Rex Stout's Nero Wolfe mysteries, among other things. I love the relationship between Nero Wolfe and Archie Goodwin, and the humor, and the evocation of NYC in the 1930's and '40's. One of the non-fiction books I'm reading is Brad Keeney's Shamans of the World. One section is from Ikuko Osumi, a master of Seiki jutsu. Very interesting. I'm also reading Walking Through Walls by Phillip Smith, a memoir of his father who was psychic and interior decorator. I've only just started, but it does start very well. The man can write. So, what are you reading these days?
