you're like the guy who inexplicably wrote on of the text books on sci fi
I read for my Masters whose viewpoint was basically 'all sci fi is for losers, except these 3 books i found which actually are very clever and I am very clever for finding them and knowing they are good' while missing all the other literary, conceptual and insightful sci fi in the world.

I like Gibson and Ballard's sci fi stuff.
But I draw the line at fucking sagas and serials. If an author is that tedious that they want to discuss slavery, technology, fascism, genetic engineering, then fine, go ahead. I just don't see why they fan't just make their point concisely. A good author knows when to stop, a sci fi fantasy one knows when spinning out their didactic shit to 8 books long will wring the most amount of cash out of Warhammer players.

I'll stick to magical realism and literary fiction thanks.
