Readers' Guilty Pleasures: Fantasy/Sci Fi

[funinspace]

My guilty pleasure would be the Laurell K. Hamilton series that kept getting raunchier as the newer books came forth...

I haven't kept up the last half dozen years or so now...

When I do read SciFi, it does tend to be more hard SciFi. The only other more fantasy oriented authors I can remember reading are C.S. Friedman (I thought "The Madness Season" was quite good) and Janet Morris.

I read a book because the Russian version of it had a fractal on it that used a formula that I was credited with discovering. I got the English language version of course, and enjoyed it.

I was glad I was lured into reading it, whatever conspiracy did so. Greg Egan's Schild's Ladder (wonder if you spaghettify Schild you get Schwarzschild... use the Schwartz Luke) had some good concepts, and was also a good read.

Someone at another forum had just mentioned "node" based reality (I think it was before SpeakPidgeon tried to argue for node based spacetime here), and it was in the beginning of the book.

I really enjoyed Egan's Orthogonal series (The Clockwork Rocket is the first book in the trilogy).
