Random quote: History, as I recall, was never this winsome, and especially not this clean, but the real thing would never sell: most people prefer a past in which nothing smells. Margaret Atwood, The Blind Assassin - (Added by: Rhondak101) |

Uber User Posts: 237 Location: Grootfontein, Namibia | Certainly, Man in the Maze deserves an entry. Another Silverberg that I thoroughly enjoyed in my youth. Pity I cannot find a decent copy for my collection to re-read here in South Africa. I may have to settle for the Kindle edition. | ||

Member Posts: 11 Location: Karachi, Pakistan | Hello, Read a couple of books by grand-masters last month which I thought I should recommend for the database here: - This Fortress World by James Gunn - Earthlight by Arthur C. Clarke Wish I had the time to write up proper reviews. As it is I just knock out a few quick thoughts and reactions in the hope people might find them useful. | ||

Uber User Posts: 456 | Speaking of Aldiss, I just remembered that Aldiss is another author who spent some time writing some non-genre "adult" books. His The Hand-Reared Boy and A Soldier Erect were terrific fun, at least at the youngish age that I read them. Some other Grand Master books that deserve to be added are:
You can never have enough Silverberg! These are just some missing "good stuff" I've read - it doesn't include books that are merely average... There are also some other deserving collections that I haven't mentioned because they (sadly!) seem to have been out of print for a while. The Farmer books are actually far, FAR stronger stuff than The Lovers (1961), the book that caused so much controversy when it was released, probably because because they were published in the permissive late 60s.

Admin Posts: 4008 Location: Dallas, Texas | Hey all, in an effort to consolidate all the different "missing books" threads into one place I've just created a new thread: Can't find the book you want? Make your book requests here! All the books from this thread have been moved over there and the GMRC requests will still get priority. I'm having a hard time keeping up with the requests all spread out so this should make things easier to manage and hopefully I won't miss any! | ||
