Alastair Reynolds

SF Author and actual space scientist based in the Netherlands. Sometimes described as writing 'The New Space Opera', which is basically just Space Opera tarted up a bit with some proper Hard SF and should probably not be confused with The New Weird. His books to date are: Revelation Space, Chasm City, Redemption Ark and Absolution Gap.

Amazon seem to like his books and recommending them to peeple who have bought other Sci Fi from them.

Books rated on a Five Point Scale:

• Revelation Space
• Chasm City
• Redemption Ark
• Absolution Gap
• Diamond Dogs, Turqouise Days (two novellas) [5 -- NH]
• Century Rain (10/04)

Clearly Reynolds has some kind of title-generating algorithm on his computer. It may or may not be related to the algorithm used by JMS.
