📚: ⭐️⭐️⭐️: Favorites by Resa Nelson, D.A. Xiaolin Spires, A. W. Prihandita, and Michael Swanwick.

This was my first book by Michael Swanwick, and it was a doozy. Really outstanding worldbuilding. Reminds me of Jeff Noon, Jeff VanderMeer, China Mieville, and J. G. Ballard, to name a few.

I am certainly intrigued, enough to devour another of his novels soon. Any recommendations? I like weird reality-questioning stuff along the lines of Philip K. Dick, the sort of thing people call "dreampunk" these days.

Was pretty happy to find The Postutopian Adventures of Darger and Surplus by #MichaelSwanwick at Borderlands Books in San Francisco on Thursday. #ScienceFiction #Bookstodon
Re-read Dancing With Bears by #MichaelSwanwick because I want to read the sequel and didn’t remember it. A pretty fun romp! The mix of mythic-style narrative mixed with modern colloquial snark gives it a different feel. #Bookstodon https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/10170242

I forgot that #MichaelSwanwick 's prose is more lyrical (and sometimes elliptical) than the typical genre novel. It takes more effort to read until I get used to it.

I rarely reread novels because my memory is usually very good, but I’m going to reread Dances with Bears by #MichaelSwanwick because I want to read the sequel and I don’t remember it at all.

(I do think my memory is getting a bit worse as I get older.)

(Also, I am a very slow reader, which further dissuades me from rereading.)
