Earth and other unlikely worlds
Parenthetically, it would be fun to examine to role of opsin in the behaviour of green hydra, which will migrate towards a bright light shone in one corner of their culture dish, presumably to maximise the photosynthetic output of their symbiotic algae. It might also be interesting to discover if green hydra's feeding behaviour is diurnal, or if it is just as active feeding by day as at dusk, or night (the polyps of reef-forming corals seems to photosynthesise by day and feed by night, getting the best of both being a plant and a predator).. . .
It showed me, I think, that science fiction stories did not need to be peopled with lords and ladies (as Roberts titles one of his measures), child-messiahs, orphans who just happened to fit the lock of their world as if oiled.
. . .
I was an early adopter of word-processing and love its fluidity of composition, but I still maintain one tradition from the old keys-on-ink-ribbon-on-paper days: I still print out at least one draft of whatever I'm working on, and go over it with a red pen in hand.
. . .
But the victorious peasants must now feed the ever-hungry Pulgasari with every scrap of metal they possess; they're no better off than before.
. . .
Did the film's state producers fail to see these parallels, or did they know exactly what they were doing but thought that the film's audience would accept the propaganda (if that's what it is) at face value?
. . .
It's by no means a good film, but it's important and interesting because it's a rare glimpse into the mindset of the famously secretive Last True Communist State™, and because one of its directors, Shin Sang-ok, was kidnapped from South Korea on the orders of Kim Jong-il, then heir presumptive of supreme leader Kim Il-sung, in 1978.

Cowboy Angels, Paul McAuley « Christian Sauvé
The rapid pacing, tough characters and high stakes won’t fail to please readers looking for old-fashioned Science-Fiction adventures. McAuley, whose fiction is usually dour, has a bit of fun in this novel (the version of reality closest to ours is called the “Nixon Sheaf” and it doesn’t look quite as bad as some of the alternatives) and the result is refreshing. While I don’t expect most readers to be as receptive to this novel as I was while reading it, Cowboy Angels now easily finds a place on my list of the top-five SF novels of 2008.. . .

PUNKADIDDLE: Paul McAuley, Fairyland (1995)
The air is alive with bright motes that slant through the night, each as individual as a snowflake.. . .
The ways in which the rise of SF is tangled up with the Reformation and the vicissitudes of scientific development in the seventeenth- to twentieth-centuries are complex.
. . .
[318-9]In other words, Alex is a version of Thomas the Rhymer (working with genes and fembots rather than words), in thrall to the Queen of Fairy.
. . .
It does much more than simply bolt a few Fantasy props onto a noirish cyberpunk SF plotline, although all the props are there (elves, wizards, dragons, trolls, beautiful female warriors, castles, goblins and a Fairy Queen).
. . .
Everything in the novel is given a scientific, technical or at the very least a pseudo-scientific explanation.
. . .
Later Alex quotes ‘mad dogs and Englishmen’ to Katrina, but once again she ‘doesn’t get the reference’ [289].

Michael Swanwick Online: Profile of Paul McAuley
He despatches them into what look like promising ideas in order to see what lies out there, and whether theres sufficiently rich material to justify more.. . .
There were no new writers coming out of Britain for the very simple reason that nobody in America would publish them.
. . .
So I couldnt help but notice that there were no new writers coming out of the Isles.
. . .
The series may well inspire a novel somewhere down the line.

If you want to understand McAuley, I can offer you no more better advice than this: Read and enjoy.

I remember 1980 well, because thats when my first published story appeared.

The SF Site Featured Review: Cowboy Angels
Copyright © 2007 by Paul Kincaid Paul Kincaid is the recipient of the SFRA's Thomas D.. . .
The pace is unrelenting, the plot is off-the-shelf, the thrills are constructed to keep you turning the page without asking too many questions about the likelihood of any of this.
. . .
That McAuley eventually resolves the temporal loop with the introduction of enigmatic time-travelling men in black is the only major problem, the only failure of nerve, in what is one of the most exciting SF adventures of the year.

. . .
As a writer he has been restless, drifting away from hard SF to alternate histories, planetary romances, and eventually, over the last few years, to the near-future, high-tech thriller.

PYR | The Quiet War by Paul McAuley
Sparth www.sparth.com From the teeming cities of earth to the scrupulously realized landscapes of the moons of Jupiter and Saturn, The Quiet War, an exotic, fast-paced space opera, turns on a single question: who decides what it means to be human?. . .
Only Gene Wolfe and Jack Vance have done it as well!" —Publishers Weekly "The fascinating inventiveness of the bio-engineered life-forms, the intricate detail of both the societies and habitats, the complex characters all amounted to a fabulous story.
. . .
He's created space opera in the grand tradition... he's made himself at home with the tale of the far future.
. . .
McAuley has always been a stylish writer, but he outdoes himself here.
. . .
This is a book that has been carefully thought out and the author displays a wealth of knowledge on subjects such as bio-remediation and terraforming.
. . .
On Earth, many demand pre-emptive action against the Outers before it's too late; others want to exploit the talents of their scientists and gene wizards.

Paul McAuley--White Devils - SFF Net
But the victims have been killed in a particularly horrifying way, and their bodies bear bite marks that don’t look human.. . .
But McAuley's UK publisher really wants readers to know the novel is a thriller.
. . .
Yet White Devils, which unquestionably is a thriller, is also, equally unquestionably, science fiction.
. . .
The government observer calls the creatures “white devils”--perverted creations, he says, of the gene hackers who ply their trade across the Congo River, in the Dead Zone where biowar diseases and gengineered plagues still rage unchecked.
. . .
Life cannot be controlled, even with the most painstaking of scientific methods.
. . .
But when Nick tries to tell the truth about what he saw, no one wants to hear it--in fact, a full-scale coverup has been initiated, directed not by the government or the army, but by Obligate, the mega-corporation that all but owns Green Congo.

White Devils by Paul McAuley - an infinity plus review
One particularly infuriating thing was that the big revelation as to what the white devils are is referred to and then deferred at least 10 times over the course of the first 400 pages.. . .
However, in a debriefing before the subsequent media flurry Hyde is pressured to 'spin' his story somewhat, to say the white devils were actually drugged children painted white.
. . .
So I am wondering why Paul McAuley, one of the genre's Big Idea writers, seems to be limiting himself somewhat by writing within the confines of the techno-thriller, bearing in mind that his last novel, the excellent Whole Wide World, was also a near-future thriller, albeit with an excellent detective story.
. . .
Well, yes, almost certainly, but the fact remains that I found White Devils to be probably the least interesting of McAuley's books to date.
. . .
If the rest of White Devils had been written to the same standard then it would be a near masterpiece of the genre.
. . .
Eventually I wanted to grab hold of Elspeth Faber and shout, 'What?!
