I feel like the only person in scifi who doesn't LOVE Ted Chiang. Don't get me wrong -- I like his writing a lot. But, I often feel like it's a little 'light' -- not sure how to describe this exactly.
I guess I'm saying he's not Philip K Dick or Stanislaw Lem, or even William Gibson, but he's awarded/discussed as much.
I will, of course, buy his next book, short or long-form. But I'd love it if he went a little higher/deeper conceptually. I think he has it in him.
