    Oh wow! Ok I never even heard of him. I’m going to have to look up his bibliography and read some of his work.

    Thanks for posting this!

      Several people on Lemmy and other places recommended ‘A Fire Upon the Deep’ and ‘A Deepness in the Sky’ to me and I plowed through them. Really enjoyable reads with actually unique takes that I haven’t seen in other media even though it’s 30 years old. The aliens feel actually alien but follow a logic which I appreciate. The ‘zones of thought’ is now just forever in my head.

      RIP Vernor
