15) Up Through an Empty House of Stars: Reviews and Essays 1980-2002, by David Langford

When I grow up I want to be David Langford. I think his "Critical Mass" column in White Dwarf must have been the first regular sf review column I read, over twenty years ago now; I have fond memories also of his just-about-non-sf novel The Leaky Establishment.

I think his pieces on Wolfe are especially good because he is so accessible and Wolfe is so, er, not and yet Langford has a clear love and understanding of the books that he conveys wonderfully.
