Read over the synopsis of the various authors and find some that might
write the type of stuff you're interested in. Then go to your local
library and skim some of their books. That way, you insure that you
get books that appeal to your particular interests.

tend to edge on the sci-fi/fantasy spectrum of fiction, but he uses a
variety of settings and interesting characters - not just outer space.

him is good. <br>
