A Must-Have

This is a unique look at SF fandom, at writing, at thinking, and at what it might be like to live in TNH's brain for a bit. It's smart, quirky, and thought-provoking on levels you don't really appreciate until you suddenly look up, days later, and say, "Oh! OH! Oh my god, that's so smart!" It's also one of those rare books I keep buying copies of, because I keep giving it to friends. So you might want to order two or three.

A modern essayist who makes any topic compelling

Her essays on narcolepsy, Mormon excommunication, and copyediting are just some of the truly unique and compulsively readable chapters of this unique book. I recommend it to almost any reader. But particularly if you care about language and the quality of writing, or about science fiction fandom, will you find this book compelling.
