G. Wells.

These now join my copies of the largest and most exhaustive collections of Asimov's science fiction ever printed and The Collected Novels of Jules Verne. And by continuing to track down volumes of near-equal length, the symmetry of their arrangement on the coffee table in my sitting room is just icing on the bibliophilic cake!



My favorite Asimov are the short stories and I love Bradbury’s short stories too. Some of those set on Mars are absolutely surreal. They transcend time. Sci-fi can still be really fun even when it’s dated but that stuff doesn’t get dated.
