| Re: Science fiction in the 1990's A few years back, I compiled a list of what I perceived to be the classic SF novels, going all the way back to 1818 for Shelly's Frankenstein and up to the then current day (about 2002). This was all for a projected web site that never happened. Others will doubtless have different opinions, but this is what I came up with for the period 1990 - 2000: 1990 THE FALL OF HYPERION DAN SIMMONS 1990 EARTH DAVID BRIN 1991 JURASSICPARKMICHAEL CRICHTON 1992 DOOMSDAY BOOK CONNIE WILLIS 1992 A FIRE UPON THE DEEP VERNOR VINGE 1992 RED MARS KIM STANLEY ROBINSON 1992 SNOW CRASH NEAL STEPHENSON 1992 QUARANTINE GREG EGAN 1994 VURT JEFF NOON 1994 FOREIGNER C.J.
