Bradbury excelled at creating
mood, and the science was distinctly secondary. In fact, I believe he has subsequently called _Fahrenheit 451_ his only real SF story, and everything else was fantasy.
Oddly, while I read and enjoyed Bradbury back when, and agree on his ability as a stylist, I've felt no desire to
re-read him.
