Reviews
A beautifully told story with colorful characters out of epic tradition, a tight and complex plot, and solid pacing. -- Booklist, starred review of On the Razor's Edge
Great writing, vivid scenarios, and thoughtful commentary ... the stories will linger after the last page is turned. -- Publisher's Weekly, on Captive Dreams
Hm... I must disagree, Heinlein is MUCH geeker than Anthony, and I only see "Japanimation" used between fans in the very shallow end of the fandom. Additionally, insisting on subtitles is geeker, because it tends to indicate a greater desire for the sublties of the original story...which draws on a culture other than your own. (ooh, it's so FUN when you finally have an ah-HA moment and grok something you've seen a dozen times as it was originally meant!)
ReplyDeleteSpeaking as a proud Geek, of course. (Hm, where's the "people who enjoy world-building" section? Or the "people who try to classify reality, either via gaming system or clarifying word use"? {Example: "geeks are the pack version of nerds."})
