The best writer you aren't reading
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
In 30 years, Howard Waldrop will have the same authority as a speculative fiction writer that Philip K. Dick has now. His stories are so insanely off the wall that no one else could have possibly even thought them up and so brilliant that only a master could have pulled them off. He manages to take familiar tropes and items that we know and put them in an entirely new context without the slightest hint of pastiche. The title story is War of the Worlds set in Texas.
