I can't really compare him with any other sci-fi writers - I haven't read much of them but I from what I've read I think he's quite a literary writer.Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06820925595506920754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7546783121640385268.post-39742410488081796212019-12-03T07:56:42.420+11:002019-12-03T07:56:42.420+11:00Congrats on finishing another book for the Back to...Congrats on finishing another book for the Back to the Classics challenge!
