I also have Out From G...Thanks for the compliment.<br /><br />I also have <i>Out From Ganymede</i>, and, yeah, the title story is like an inferior version of <i>Falling Astronauts</i>. I loved <i>Falling Astronauts</i>, have not read <i>Beyond Apollo</i> yet. <br /><br />I have, I think, five reviews of Malzberg SF things on Amazon I will eventually paste on here. I am curious to read some of his non-SF novels, but have not done so yet.<br /><br />I think I have pestered you before about your need to read <i>Galaxies</i>, so I won't do it again. It is quite different from <i>Falling Astronauts</i>, so don't worry!

I have his collection Out From Ganymede -- tried to read it a few weeks ago, the first story's first paragraph was almost exactly like the first paragraph of Falling Astronauts.... <br /><br />That said, Revelations and Beyond Apollo are two of my favorite SF books of all time. He is brilliant, I just wish there was more variety in what he wrote... Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
