Independent
Novel Choices
If there are two authors on
the cover, beware. Currently,
science fiction publishers are “farming out” work of successful authors to nobodies
who then crank out substandard work based on the worlds, characters, and technology
created by the successful author. You have
been warned.
If there are more than twenty-five
books on the inside cover, beware. Some
older writer have actually written more than twenty good books (such as Isaac Asimov), but in
these sad days, many science fiction publishers are demanding impossible schedules
for writers, forcing them to produce an entire novel few months. You have been warned.
