I prefer the quote from Asimov's Science Fiction on the PYR website: "[Lou Anders] has been opting for trying to maintain a consistently high level of literary quality. What Pyr has begun to publish, and yes, thus far fairly consistently,
is ... science fiction written specifically for experienced and intelligent readers of science fiction."
I haven't read a book from PYR yet, so maybe I should try one of the science fiction novels. The only problem would be deciding which one I should read first.
Hi Reid,
Depends on what kinds of SF you are looking for. If you give me an idea who you do read, I can help triangulate.
Such as:
Peter Hamilton? John Meaney.
John Scalzi? Mike Resnick.
Ken MacLeod? Paul McAuley.
Heinlein? Kristine Kathryn Rusch.
Neal Stephenson? Ian McDonald. Charles Stross? David Louis Edelman.
Not an exact science.No author IS another author. But maybe a jumping in place.
