I wonder if she plans to get back into writing "real" Sci-fi some more. The Monk and Robot series is nice, but IMHO the Wayfarer series was better. Maybe something based on earth in the not that far far future would be cool as well?
My favorite book of hers is "Record of a Spaceborn Few" đ
Well rn im reading The Monk and Robot series. Im an anxious guy and it appeases me. Idc if its not real SF.
It is not a bad series by all means, but imagine the robot being a golem and nothing else changed... it really is more of a fantasy book IMHO.
True. But i really dont care. I care about good books. I have GAD - general anxiety disorders - and during 20 years, i treated it alone with heroin, crack, weird russian meds etc.
Now im sober, i do a lot of sport, méditation & cold showers.
And rn im reading this book, and it feels like natural valium to me: that's amazing! Thank God for that.
I love Peter Watts, but damn, reading him at night is a whole différent expérience. Same for PKD & Lovecraft.
