Another

In Dan Simmons' Hyperion Cantos the first message the ultimate robot intelligence from the future sends back in time to the present is THERE IS ANOTHER. That is the message I send you now.

All I know is she is one of the prettiest girls I hav

An Early Look at the Cover for MUSE OF FIRE by Dan Simmons

Here’s a very early, unfinished look at the gorgeous cover that John Picacio has come up with for Dan Simmons’ space opera novella, Muse of Fire. Both Dan and I were so taken with John’s vision, and his interweaving and layering of different elements and themes from the story that we agreed immediately that he’d [...]

One thing I love about literature is the way words bring out pictures in our mind that our eyes could never see or make sense of. For my birthday, Amy got me a copy of Hyperion by Dan Simmons, a futuristic Canterbury Tales set in a universe so utterly foreign that it took me [...]

Adventures in SF Publishing: Dan Simmons on The Terror

(Lexington doesn't have a cool independent genre bookstore that I can browse on slow days. I like the aesthetic experience of picking up various new books and leisurely deciding on one that I think will be good. Back in San Diego where I grew up that store was Mysterious Galaxy and imagine my surprise when not too long ago I found out that some of their booksellers produce a SF podcast show. Next week...

Favorite Science Fiction Book

What's your favorite science fiction book? I ask, because this is a real tough one for me. I'm inclined to say the Hyperion novels by Dan Simmons. That being said, the book I just read by Alastair Reynolds was pretty damn good too: Revelation Space Any way, what's yours? As a side note, I would have to agree with Evan about the fact that we have so many sci-fi readers. I think it does a lot to create...
