I’ve been seeing her name a lot lately in terms of good science fiction and fantasy. I feel like I’ve lost so much attention span in terms of my ability to read and stuff and I’d like to start getting back into it, perhaps starting with her (or Terry Pratchett lol).
If I start with her, what’s a good place to start with her work?
I’m not really answering that question as much as adding a recommendation for another author, so hopefully you don’t mind.
Check out the Broken Earth trilogy by N.K. Jemisin. Hugo and nebula awards were awarded for novels in the trilogy, and I tore right through them. She has a short story collection that I read first and it really hooked me in. Such a wide variety of worlds, peoples, and consciousness she’s able to bring to life. The title doesn’t make you think “sci Fi shorts” but I assure you it is, and fantastic! “How Long 'til Black Future Month?”
NK jemisin is great but that’s not the topic 🤔
I enjoyed both Broken Earth and Wizard of Earthsea , anyone any recommendations for similar stories or writers?
