I like James White a lot and also Jo Clayton. I have Beginning Operations coming to me in the mail, and I am very excited about it. I have only read 2 Sector General novels and am looking forward to more. Has anyone read; The Galactic Gourmet; by James White? It was the first of his that I had the opportunity to read and I found it fascinating. What an intriguing idea; a multi-species hospital in space!

Peter David definately for both his Star Trek series and the weird but cool PsiMan Alan Dean Foster - Flinx / Commonwealth C.Z. Czerneda - Trade Pact does Spider Robinson count as Sci/Fi or fantasy? Douglas Adams - Hitchhikers of course but Dirk Gently is hilarious too. F. Paul Wilson - LaNague but also for Repairman Jack though that is more horror. |

Many of mine have already been listed, so I'll avoid repeating them with one exception... My all-time fave Sci-Fi author is Mr. Isaac Asimov. I'm re-reading his Robot, Empire, and Foundation novels right now, and simply love them. |
