Critics Review
A fitting tribute to a great philosophical writer who found science fiction the ideal form for the expression of his ideas - The Independent
My literary hero - Fay WeldonAn elusive and incomparable artist - Ursula K. Le GuinNo other writer of his generation had such a powerful intellectual presence. He stamped himself not only on our memories but in our imaginations - Brian AldissAbout The Author
