excellent hard sf submitted by grubbg on June 12, 2015, 3:33pm Kim Stanley Robinson creates an expansive, well-researched and well-theorized world of the far-future in this novel. His conjectures for future tech seems air-tight to me! A fascinating, suspenseful ride.
Sublime submitted by severian on June 30, 2021, 9:19pm If you’re into sci if and/or microhistory, this book is for you. It’s packed with mind bending ideas; I read it two years ago and still am thinking about it. And it doesn’t hurt that Robinson writes the hell out of a sentence.
