|
------------------------------------------

|
|
|

|
|
|
|||
|
|
**NEW NOTE: My paper is due Monday. If anybody knows in what Arthur
|
|||
|
|
C. Clarke book he mentions orbitl satellites, please e-mail me title,
|
|||
|
|
and, if possible, bibliographic information. MANY MANY THANKS!**
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
(All comments and critique welcome. I'd appreciate any comments on the books
|
|||
|
|
listed here, any additional books by these authors, regardless of
|
|||
|
|
sexual content, and anything you may have forgotten or assumed
|
|||
|
|
somebody else would recommend :-). In addition, I'm also looking for
|
|||
|
|
more non-positive renditions of alternate sexuality in fantasy...feel
|
|||
|
|
free to send me SF too and I'll add it to the list even though I may
|
|||
|
|
not use it for my paper. I don't have time to read all of these, so
|
|||
|
|
I'm relying on your comments. Not everything listed here may be sf/f.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Please, if you recommend something, or correct something, let me know
|
|||
|
|
if it's fantasy or science fiction.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Many, many thanks...I'm sorry I can't thank you all personally. I'll
|
|||
|
|
keep posting updated lists every couple of weeks.)
