64. Hugo Winners...

Mon Feb 11, 2019, 10:02 PM

Feb 2019

I will finish reading the Hugo Winning novels in 5 books. I finish Simak's Way Station tonight. Great stuff ahead, I hope, including Arthur C Clarke's Fountains of Paradise and Rendezvous with Rama, Robert Sawyer's Hominids, Blish's A Case of Conscience, and Zelazny's Lord of Light. I may reread Farmer's To Your Scattered Bodies Go, David Brin's Startide Rising, and Fred Pohl's Gateway. I haven't read those since Reagan was President.
