I prefer to enjoy sci-fi by reading it, not singing “Fuck Me, Ray Bradbury”
I’ve been on a 1970’s sci-fi reading trip this week, polishing off Robert Silverberg’s Alpha Three collection, Clifford D. Simak’s Shakespeare's Planet, and Larry Niven’s Ringworld (a second time) in only 9 days. But I can’t say I’ve been so over-taken by it that I feel like getting jiggy w/ the Bradbury!
