2009 Reading IX-XVI
IX: Marion Zimmer Bradley, Heritage of Hastur
X: Samuel R. Delany, Dhalgren
XI: J.G. Ballard, Crash
XII: Colin Dexter, Last Seen Wearing
XIII: Colin Dexter, The Silent World of Nicholas Quinn
XIV: Michael Moorcock, The Warlord of the Air
XV: Michael Moorcock, The Land Leviathan
XVI: Barry N. Malzberg, Beyond Apollo
A catchup listing only - most of these are rereads, for 1970s sf purposes; the two Dexters are new and the pattern is familiar - suspect everyone until you are right. The Malzberg is late new wave - an unreliable narrator tries to recall the two man mission to Venus as he writes his memoirs.
