Recombination

[ewx]

Recombination was fun. It's been a while since I'd been to a con.

One of the things it made clear was that I've not been fully keeping up with really good SF and fantasy for some time now. Rather than attempt to remember all things that were mentioned over the weekend, would anyone care to recommend the highlights of the last decade of SF/F writing that they think I might have missed?

(Extruded fantasy product need not be mentioned l-)

I borred a Stross book from rmc28, and enjoyed it. If you've not read any Tim Powers, then you should - he builds his stories around historical events and people (usually), and his books are very readable (and not too long! :)

My first reading of Tim Powers was "The Anubis Gates", which I read in 1988 or 1989. It was enough to turn me off him. Maybe I should try again almost 20 years later...

Ooh, maybe I should look at Tim Powers :)
