I love all sorts of science fiction.
Been getting into urban fantasy a bit but have gone off epic fantasy.
I like the book to have a good pace but am not averse to a well written slower paced book that is interesting.

Hi PKFFW,

for science-fiction: Rendezvous with Rama by A. C. Clark; Dune (of course!); Forge of God by Greg Bear, and if you like it, Anvil of Stars is a follow-up.

For something that approaches the supernatural without delving too deeply, John Connolly is excellent.

Someone I just discovered recently: Mick Herron. somewhat literary, but his books are thrillers, through-and-through, with lashings of humor.

Cheers,

Michael P
