LOVE Dick Francis. I should send you all my old mysteries. Have you read Dorothy Sayers's Lord Peter Whimsey stories?

Asimov's Foundation trilogy is a masterpiece. I was just thinking the other day about re-reading it.

What do you think of Ray Bradbury's Martian Chronicles? That was the book that turned me on to science fiction when I was 14. Or Robert Heinlein's Stranger in a Strange Land? Do you grok that??!!

I'm new to sci-fi what... only 12 books 10 of which was Asimov.
I'll have to check Ray Bradbury's out. hay maybe i can get them before i go to my sister. sweet, i think i'll do that.

I was really looking for another good sci fi too. Ive read Ray Bradbury's Something wicked this way comes. Lot of medifor if i remember, which is a little of a turn off for me but not so much as i wouldn't give it a go.

What i liked about asimov, beside the great writing and all, was how long ago they where written.

LS- I LOVED Stranger in A Strange Land when I first read it. Now that I've been in school so long I'm skeptical of the politics, blah, blah, blah- but I still think it's a very well written book. And I also liked The Cat Who Walked Through Walls. My husband is all about the sci-fi, I read some occasionally, but not to his extent.

I'm always looking for new authors to explore. My library always seems to have ONE book by whatever new author I discover.
