   Keine Keine aktuelle Diskussion zu diesem Buch.   ) quinton.baran | Mar 29, 2021 |  Loved Call Me Joe by Poul Anderson - Brilliant precursor to James Cameron's Avatar. Passengers by Silverberg - A world where people's bodies can be usurped and disregarded at arbitrary times by intangible spirits with their own personalities. An interesting, unpredictable, progressive ending. Sandkings by George R R Martin - An outstanding addition to the sf horror subgenre. A moral overtone to boot. Encouraged me to explore this author's collection Nightflyers and Other Stories. I was not disappointed. Liked The Nine Billion Names of God by Arthur C Clarke - A simple story exploring the relationship between Western rationalism and Eastern spirituality. Also anthologised in The Science Fiction Hall of Fame, Volume One. Bears Discover Fire by Terry Bisson - Classic tale of evolution. Also anthologised by Dozois. Snow by John Crowley - A sentimental look at memory recall in the context of lost loved ones. Very "Dark Mirror"-esque. Also anthologised by Dozois. Loathed "All You Zombies--" by Heinlein - Time-travelling mystery, too much effort, didn't get it, not my cup of tea.
