I have not heard if that one, Surtac, but with those two authors I must rectify the omission!

Re: What have you been reading lately?
I think KSR, Stephenson and Gibson are all good writing about feelings and relationships as well as sci fi, and Welis and Leckie are as good as Cherryh in doing both as well. Perhaps the conclusion we must reach is that good writers can write good books that encompass the human condition while also speculating about what ifs, and both men and women can be good writers
and the reverse is also true

It's non-fiction, Kokipy - a series of essays I believe concerning the nature of what SF/F actually is.
Oh, and on that other topic, it's worth remembering the story of how and why CJC adopted the nom de plume that she did, just quietly.
It's a strange world. Let's keep it that way.
