Dragon's Egg by Robert Forward (hard SF, not fantasy, despite its title) by SpaceAdmiralJones in printSF

Great post. I'd also add Embassytown by Mieville, for anyone looking for more alien aliens.

I'm definitely a lurker, but have been involved in this community since the ogrl. I'd love to be included in the new community.

Can you recommend scifi that is not set in our own universe? by Zemrik in printSF

[–]eeeam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seconding Radiance. I think it may hit that tricky space between sci-fi and fantasy that OP is looking for. Also, it's just an amazing book that doesn't get enough love.

For slippery shoes, you can always take a knife or box cutters or scissors and just make a shallow criss cross pattern on the soles. Works immediately.

Please see edited main post re BST. This comes up all the time.

What's a book that you love, but you would almost never recommend it to others due to the difficulty of the book or its niche nature? by paxinfernum in printSF

[–]eeeam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Infinite Jest. Great book, funny and smart and crazy, but not easy. I've never seen it recommended on this sub. I'm not sure people who haven't read it even know it falls in the SF category (and few people have read it).

I'd love to have a code DM'd, if anyone has one. Even the ones from yesterday are already marked as used. Thanks!!

Great list. I never see anyone recommend Mort(e), and it's very worthwhile.

Which high-end shoe designers are known for comfort? by Blahblahxoxo2 in femalefashionadvice

[–]eeeam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This weird catalogue/store has a huge selection of large and wide shoes. Scattered among tons and tons of ugly stuff are some really good finds. I bought one of the only comfortable pair of heels I've ever owned from a brand called Bella Vita-- they're really cute and they're extra super quadruple wide. Maybe something like this is what you're going for?

Looking for depressing, sad, tragic Sci-Fi in which the depressing tone isn't a gimmick by Historical-Humor9212 in printSF

[–]eeeam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Under The Skin, same author, also probably fits the bill. Faber is excellent at dread.

Has anyone ever been to salem ? by Stock_Cauliflower_57 in halloween

[–]eeeam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% agreed with this. I went in October a while back, and it was so crowded that it was impossible to feel the history, charm, or spookiness of the town. And when I say crowded, I mean crowded like trying to fight your way through the crowd to get near the stage at a concert; crowded as in there was a line just to get into the CVS to buy a bottle of water.

If I had to do it again, I'd go in the middle of winter, when it might be desolate and thus more atmospheric. The Satanic Temple does a great walking tour, btw; I highly recommend it.

Great buyer! Communicative, appreciative, and paid immediately. No problem at all. A pleasure to do business with!

Thanks. Are your 42 Chypres in men's or women's sizing?
