My local bookshop in the UK has a big sci-fi section and there's always new stuff coming out. Maybe you're looking the wrong places. Certainly in the UK, sci-fi has never been healthier. Iain M Banks, China Mieville, Peter F Hamilton and Alastair Reynolds have all had new titles out in the past twelve months, to name but a few. Then there's the military sci-fi juggernaut that is the Warhammer 40,000 universe that seems to produce new titles every few months (albeit of widely varying quality).
