Author Comments:
Not in any particular order -- and not all at once! Am I missing any?
Obviously I need to read more women authors, any recommendations?
Have you read the Illuminatus trilogy by Robert Wilson & Robert Shea?
I love RAW's work immensely. I've read nearly all of his books. I do like is non-fiction a whole lot better than his fiction though.
I would have added him to my list but I've already met him several times.
Just had to ask given the other authors you have listed. I like the fiction better, but have read the non-fiction as well. It just tends to get repetitive after awhile. I almost met him once...
After R.A.W. wrote "Cosmic Trigger" (what I consider to be his thesis statment), he expanded this further by turning each chapter of "Cosmic Trigger" into its own book. Of these "Prometheus Rising" was my favorite.
