I am looking for recommendations for fantasy books based on (heavily or not
so) Celtic/Irish myth.  This could include re-tellings of classic myth/legend/
fairy tales, or just books in an Irish vein.  I've heard _The Book Of Kells_
by R. A. MacAvoy (sp?) is a good place to start; any suggestions?

Thanks!

Another one to read is _Twistor_ by John Cramer, who is a physicist here 
at the University of Washington.  It's about an experimental physicist who
discovers a new effect and what that discovery generates.  Goes a little 
heavily into the physics in the first quarter of the novel for my taste, but
on the whole, quite good.

Cramer is the the same one who has a bi-monthly science column in Analog.

Among other things, he had four typewriters.  His usual IBM Selectric, a back 
up in case the first failed, a manual typewriter in case of power failures, and 
a back up manual typewriter in case the first manual typewriter failed...  
(This is true and gives you some idea of his dedication to writing.)

Something else I'd like to point out, if no one else has so far:  The 3 "laws" 
of robotics that seem to be always credited to Isaac weren't "his".  Every time 
I saw when he was asked about them, he was very careful to say that John 
Campbell, editor of Analog, came up with them and suggested them to Isaac.  He 
must have denied being their author hundreds of times over the years.  Of 
course, he was the one who popularized them.

This is one beatiful novel.  Even the cover on the hardcopy is
beautiful.  The novel is almost 700 pages, the plot is complex
and interwoven, and the character development is excellent.

If you read and enjoyed "The Snow Queen", the prequel, you will love
the "The Summer Queen."

There were many occasions in "The Summer Queen" where reread a sentence
or paragraph because of its emotional impact.  Vinge knows how to 
show the way technology affect people; how it is a double-edged
sword that helps and hurts each user.  The power of this book comes
from the way galactic issues come down to personal choices;
each character is a unique blend of ability and need.  The
ending gave me a sense of fulfillment and resolution that is rare
these days.

Yes, people can get scared while reading horror, at least I can.

One evening I was reading Clive Barker's "The Midnight Meat Train,"
and was just at the climax of this rather frightening tale, 
when the phone rang. I was so wrapped up in the tension of 
the story, I nearly jumped across the room!

Also, my cousin told me about the time when he was reading Stephen
King's _It_. He had just moved into a house out in the country,
and was living by himself with his two cats. When he was reading
a particularly scary section at about 1:00 a.m., the cats suddenly 
stopped what they were doing and turned to look out the window...
at presumably nothing. He says he spent the rest of this rather 
late night on the phone with his girlfriend!

While Eric and I may never agree on the merits of Richard Grant, I have to
concur 100% with him on _Stations of the Tide_, which - excepting that
"odious" Grant - is the best book I've read this year.

I didn't expect it.  Swanwick's first novel, _Vacuum Flowers_, showed
promise, but was confused, disorganized, and ultimately unsatisfying; like a
poor imitation of Bruce Sterling.  But the Swanwick of _Stations of the
Tide_ is a different writer, no second-rate cyberclone.  By any standards,
he's one of the best SF writers - hell, one of the best writers - around
today.  _ST_ is wildly imaginative in both detail and theme, written with
power and control, plotted like a mad roller-coaster with the characters for
the ride. 

For $4.50, _Stations of the Tide_ is a prime steal.  It's my favorite waste
of five bucks since I lost my grip on a V-note and sucked it up with a load
of prime Peruvian.  Where that bill is now, god only knows; but _ST_'s
sitting cozy on my bookshelf, and it deserves a place on yours.

Some of them can be, and probably are (Vanyel suggests that, in _Magic's

them can be, for reasons I think obvious.  Namely, *numbers*.

Now, it's possibly, maybe even what she had in mind, that the Grove-born
Companions (is that the right term?  ones like Rolan, who didn't have other
Companions as parents) are special, and the others are reincarnated Heralds,

I am going to be *extremely* surprised if she doesn't explain more about

I liked all of Banks' Culture novels, but I did find "Use of Weapons"
disappointing in some ways. There is no other way for the novel to go
but to keep building and building to the climactic unification of the
present plotline with the flashback chapters, but then, that
climax+denouement is almost inevitably going to be a let-down.  It was
a particular problem for me in this case because I found the
psychological motivation (and the bizarre identity-swap) to be
completely unbelievable.

Nevertheless, "Use of Weapons" was still far and away better than most
current SF novels which wouldn't even have attempted this difficult
feat, and I found the path to the final chapter very entertaining.

Each of the books relating to the Culture shows it in a different
light, from the almost all-powerful society depicted in "The Player of
Games" to a civilization battling (somewhat diffidently of course) for
its existence against barbarians in "Consider Phlebas" -- of course
the novels are probably separated by thousands of years in Banks'
chronology.

I guess the Culture could be typified as the "United Federation of
Planets" with a backbone, as depicted by an author who can delve far
more deeply into human motivation and character than the Star Trek
writers.

NPR reported this morning that he died in a New York hospital of heart
and kidney failure. The death was announced by his brother. Asimov,
according to NPR, was 72. Although NPR didn't mention it, Asimov had
a long history of heart problems. He had at least one heart attack and
a heart bypass operation that I can recall.

I would expect some Asimov retrospectives at the WorldCon in Orlando.
It would be interesting to see perhaps panel discussions in the literary,
academic, science and fannish program tracks.
