The Embedding
The Embedding (1973)
Ian Watson

Bob Shaw
"Brilliant ... witty, frightening, and admiringly ambitious."
Oswald's Tale
Oswald's Tale (1995)
Norman Mailer
"Mailer has written some pretty crazy books in his time, but this isn't one of them. Like its predecessor, Harlot's Ghost, it is the performance of an author relishing the force and reach of his own acuity."
The Sea
The Sea (2005)
John Banville
"He is a master, and his prose gives continuous sensual delight."
