Trying to search and buy Departure in India, but getting a hard time doing it. The literary scene is dominated by romances and all other crap you can literally count on fingers people who read Sci Fi here, yet i will only stick to writing Sci Fi
Recommend here for Olaf stapledon novels and shorts. Reproduced free by Adelaide university. Not downloaded yet myself but they appear to have lots of out of copywrite works.
Aha, open thread. I'm reading Departure, the first Neal Asher book I have read. I'm loving it, BUT: so far it seems to rely a lot on human population growth as the cause of so many problems.
Population growth on its own should be no problem: more brains to solve problems. (Val on Mars seems to understand this.) Where are the 3D farming and hydroponics on Earth?
Of course it is the Committee preventing such innovation. The shortage is caused by a lack of free markets not overpopulation.
So why does Saul keep lamenting the stupid over-breeding human race?
I am hoping he realises all this by the end of the book.
Just leaving this here, a short science fiction movie I stumbled upon, looks pretty good I think http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=xQuGpW0NuW8
I’ve been an engineer, barman, skip lorry driver, coalman, boat window manufacturer, contract grass cutter and builder. Now I write science fiction books, and am slowly getting over the feeling that someone is going to find me out, and can call myself a writer without wincing and ducking my head. As professions go, I prefer this one: I don’t have to clock-in, change my clothes after work, nor scrub sensitive parts of my body with detergent. I think I’ll hang around.

This has a free 30 day trial (should be enough) and perhaps Neal will be back blogging by then anyway :)
