McMurphy
Apostate Against the Eloi
Have any of you ever read a fantasy or science fiction novel and readily dismissed it as merely literary garbage only to find out later that it is, instead, a critically acclaimed piece of work?
My example would have to be The Iron Dragon's Daughter by Michael Swanwick. I read the novel a couple years ago, and it was only today during a session of mindlessly browsing through amazon.com did I find out that, not only was the book well received, it was written by a Nebula Award winning author (for Stations of the Tide).
Wow, I was wrong on that one!
I would also be interested in hearing everyone's opinions and feelings on The Iron Dragon's Daughter.
