| Re: New Clarke, any views? I liked both Trigger and Light of Other Days - I can't really see what there was in the latter to complain about so vociferously. They both had interesting concepts and were pulled off in what I thought were interesting ways - they demonstrated the effects of the technology on both the individual and society as a whole. If all you're after is some interesting, 'hard' physics, I know some great academic journals you could rifle through!
I also read 'Sunspot', the second of the duolog you mentioned at the top of the thread. I thought it was ok, though I hadn't realised when I bought it that it was the second part of a duolog! D'oh! It also put a scifi story I was working on well and truly in the crapper. |
