What #scifi #books should I read next? I feel like I'm running out. Been burning through female SF writers recently, I really want to read more J.C. Cherryh but there's very little that's on #ebook. Done #leguin, done #NicolaGriffith. Not so interested in #fantasy, but love #pratchet and #leguin so ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ.

Any suggestions? Could revisit Arthur C Clarke and #asimov I suppose, not sure I ever did the #foundation series...

โ€œShe liked time at the edges of things โ€” the edge of the crowd, the edge of the pool, the edge of the wood โ€” where all must pass but none quite belonged.โ€

โ€• Nicola Griffith, "Hild"

Went to hear #NicolaGriffith interview #KatrinaCarrasco and came home with three novels, two #Naples city guides, and one brief history of #Italy (I'm going to Naples in June). This is why I can't be let loose in #bookstores.

I just finished #Spear by #NicolaGriffith yesterday and have started #Bloodmarked #TracyDeonn. I guess Iโ€™m on an #Arthuriana kick for the first time in quite a few years, which is nice! Returning to an old love. What else should I read?

(I wonโ€™t be rereading Mists of Avalon because of MZBโ€™s abuse - Iโ€™ll leave it in my memory.)

I've been listening to Nicola Griffith's โ€œHildโ€ based on a mention of it by @timbray and thoroughly enjoying it.

Makes me want to re-listen to (or read) Bernard Cornwell's "Winter Kingโ€, โ€œEnemy of Godโ€, โ€œExcaliburโ€ trilogy again. Which is a very good re-interpretation of the Arthur legend/story.

@hybridhavoc Here's a few of mine who aren't RJ or Brando Sando (who go without saying):

#KateElliott
#DanielAbraham
#KatherineAddison

And even though I've only read one of her books, #NicolaGriffith because "Hild" is beyond beautiful.

(Also, you didn't specify *fiction* authors, so let's add #StephenJayGould and #AndrewKnoll)

I'm tired of being considered a lesbian writer, tired of being a science-fiction writer, tired of being a thriller writer. I'm a writer. Period. Story matters to me.... #NicolaGriffith #quote https://openquotes.github.io/authors/nicola-griffith-quotes/#99a2a8d9

My first website went up in 1995. On it I ran a feature called Ask Nicola. Readers would email me questions, I'd answer whichever took my fancy.... #NicolaGriffith #citation https://openquotes.github.io/authors/nicola-griffith-quotes/#a3819361
