Re: Book list

Hmm, I never read Little/Big; however, I did read Little Big Man (since I loved the movie--and of course the book was even better), but think I'm safe in assuming that Little/Big and Little Big Man are two completely unrelated novels.

I read a lot of fantasy and enjoyed it quite as much as science fiction when I was younger (teens-20's). I still enjoy a good fantasy novel from time to time, but like everything I read now, including S-F, it has to be REALLY GOOD. Of late, however, I'm not sure where the "good" S-F has gotten to. Most of it now seems to be fantasy dressed up as S-F. S-F I really liked from the 90's includes Michael Swanwick's VACUUM FLOWERS, and I still love Isaac Asimov's short stories, and will likely always have a nostalgic place in my heart for Robert Heinlein's Juvenal SF novels.
