Which is fascinating because:
1. The last time I filled out this meme, I was declared to be Stanislaw Lem, who I’d never read, but have since and now like.
2. Just this evening, I stopped at Page One on the way home and, on a whim, because it was there, I bought a copy of The Gods Themselves. Uncanny!
FUN FACT: I haven’t read very much Asimov – just two Robot books (I, Robot and The Caves Of Steel). I enjoyed both, but typically the only other books I ever see on the shelves here are the Foundation books, which don’t really interest me. I’m not a huge fan of epic space operas as a rule. However, if any of you want to make a case for the Foundation series, go right ahead.
Anyway, not a bad result, although my current attempts to pound out science fiction bear about as much resemblance to Asimov as the average Dear Penthouse collection. That said, I do have a file full of notes for a story involving a rogue Pentagon concubine droid reprogrammed with the Shaw Brothers library and the first four Black Sabbath albums ...
And at least I get some epic sideburns.
Ladies and gentlemen we are floating in space,
This is dF
