Mindscanned: an interview with Robert J. Sawyer
01/07/2008. Our glorious editor GF Willmetts sits down with Canadian science fiction author Robert J. Sawyer to chat about whether aliens visiting Earth are likely to be friendly or aggressive, dropping pop-cultural references into his books, why Rob's turning down offers to write short fiction for $1.25 a word, and why what really attracts people to scifi is the need to be amazed.

The Incredible Hulk (Mark's take)
01/07/2008. The Army created but cannot control Bruce Banner, the Hulk. Banner's anger has the power to turn him into a bouncing ten-foot monster as hard as rock. Edward Norton (who plays Banner) is one of the finest actors of his generation. This, believes Mark, may not be the best film for him, but he is an asset to the film. The Incredible Hulk is a darker and grimmer superhero film with a more tragic hero than we have seen of late from the Marvel films.

In memory of Stan Winston (1946-2008)
01/07/2008. Stan Winston brought Visual Imagination to the Screen. Mark's original article for this week, the fourth part of series of four, had to be postponed a week so that Mark can note the following milestone in the field of artistic expression of fantasy and science fiction.

Fantasy and science fiction writers: popularity and influence
01/07/2008. Literary critics, says SF author L.E. Modesitt, like to write about the importance of an author and his/her work, but many of them seldom put it quite that way. They write about themes and styles and relationships and relevance, but, most of the time, when they write about an author, they're only guessing as to whether an author will really have a lasting influence over readers and culture and whether anything written by that author will resonate or last beyond the author's lifespan.

Algis Budrys (1931-2008): a remembrance by GF Willmetts
01/07/2008. Algirdas Jonas Budrys, the Prussian-born science fiction author more commonly known as Algis Budrys was a rare talent and died on 9th June 2008. Very little of his material was released in the UK and the odd books of his that our Geoff has in his collection ended up being lucky finds.

A little more visceral: Jacqueline Carey interviewed
01/07/2008. Rob - aka The Fantasy Book Critic - reviews Jacqueline Carey's novel Kushiel's Mercy, then gets Jacqueline in the interview chair to chat about her epic fantasy writing, going to China to research her latest tome, Naamah's Blessing, and her love of the sheer escapism and the sense of wonder fantasy evokes.

All Cannes-ed out
01/07/2008. SF author Philip Palmer, creator of such great novels as Debatable Space, reports about what it's like to be a shy(ish) science fiction writer at the Cannes Film Festival. True to the code of the geek, he was surrounded by glamour and beautiful women and gorgeous men and beautiful Mediterranean skies ... but he sat and read SFF novels instead.

Emperor of the Malazan: Steven Erikson interviewed
01/07/2008. Fantasy author Steven Erikson gamely sits down with the Fantasy Book Critic to discuss his works, including Tales of the Malazan Book of the Fallen and Reaper's Gale, why the latter featured more humour and tragedy than any other book in the series so far, and why his ninth novel will be a cliffhanger.

Science fiction, literature, and the haters
01/07/2008. Jake Seliger asks why so little science fiction rises to the standards of literary fiction. Most novels expend all their ideas at once, and to keep going would be like wearing a shirt that fades from too many washes. Even in science fiction, very few if any series maintain their momentum over time.

Decadent urbanism: Jay Lake interviewed
01/07/2008. Rob, aka The Fantasy Book Critic, gets his teeth into SFF author's Jay Lake's Mainspring, while Jay sits down in the interviewee's chair to discuss the lateralisation of the Renaissance idea of God the watchmaker, how his childhood was spent in Southeast Asia and West Africa, and steampunk.

Keeping between the hedges: Paul Kearney interviewed
01/07/2008. Fantasy author Paul Kearney talks with Aidan Moher about the need to write, his shocking breakup with publisher Bantam, the joy of working with Solaris, why writers like Alan Garner knock Philip Pullman into a cocked hat, and his love of a good fantasy map at the start of a novel.

The unblemished novellist: Conrad Williams interviewed
01/07/2008. Our Rob talks with horror and fantasy author Conrad Williams about his short stories, writing what occurs to him, coping with self-confidence problems, and getting Virgin Books to publish his novel The Unblemished as a mass market paperback.

Running with the Dogs: Nancy Kress interviewed
01/07/2008. Science fiction author Nancy Kress is interviewed by fellow SF writer Mike Brotherton about why she is fascinated by the way viruses and bacteria can mutate, loving the works of Ursula LeGuin, and waking up early and usually spending the whole morning writing.

It rains when it shines
01/07/2008. In this month's editorial, Uncle Geoff asks have you ever noticed how your perception of the world is determined by the condition of the weather? After all, we are very much weather dependent for mood swings and perception on what we see and feel around us to the world even before the rest of the universe hits us.
