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 ๐คทโโ๏ธ.
Any suggestions? Could revisit Arthur C Clarke and #asimov I suppose, not sure I ever did the #foundation series...
โShe 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 Iโm 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 wonโt be rereading Mists of Avalon because of MZBโs abuse - Iโll leave it in my memory.)
I've been listening to Nicola Griffith's โHildโ 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, โEnemy of Godโ, โExcaliburโ 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)
