Incredible!

Ted Chiang's collection of stories defies description. They are science fiction, but unlike almost any other science fiction I've ever read. Chiangs fiction creativity is amazing. His ability to immerse the reader deeply in arcane science, mathematical theory, xeno-liguistics, even Victorian faux science, and to maintain the fascination is uncanny. I think I have found a new favorite author. I finished Stories of Your Life and Others this morning and then waited for the library to open so that I could check out his next book, his second of three, The Merchant and the Alchemist's Gate.
