every book i've got in the house i've read the print off of soo many times. i don't know who if anyone is writing and published the kinds of stories i'm interested in these days any more. mysteries are a substitute but an inadiquite one. i do know an offordable book store which i may visit again some time soon.
wars and family sagas, empires, swords, guns, cars, and horses, aren't my idea of fiction ABOUT science.
social impacts are ok too, but they need to be about what is causing them, and not be limited to popular assumptions (or unpopular ones) about how they do.
they do generally need to be about something i'm not expecting to see on my bus ride to the grocery store and back.
in the 70s and 80s there were tons of really good ones like i like, but by the 2000s they slowed to a trickle.
