I was looking over the other half’s shoulder last night as he was reading and noticed that the issue of NewScientist in question had a special report on the future of science fiction. Since I didn’t want to wait to read it (I actually have about 6 months worth of NewScientist issues to read at my bedside), I wandered over to their site to see if the article was online for nonsubscribers and there it was.
One article asks “Is science fiction dying” and has responses from Margaret Atwood, Stephen Baxter, William Gibson, Ursula K Le Guin, Kim Stanley Robinson, and Nick Sagan. There is also a list of writers to watch, reviews of science fiction books, and the results of a poll on all-time favourite science fiction books and movies. It is an interesting collection of articles to read so I thought I would pass it on to you.
