“Science fiction is the literature of change, the genre that examines the implications – both beneficial and dangerous – of new sciences and technologies. It is uniquely able to do this because science fiction is not just about what is and what was, but what could be. This is what appeals most to me about the genre. A compelling science fiction story can take a reader to any point in space and time, from the farthest reaches of the Universe to the depths of the human soul. It really can be just like being there."
