I don’t like Neil Gaiman, I find his writing a bit repetitive and his personality is a little grating. But are these other two authors any good? I’m always looking for new science fiction authors to get into, and quite liked Cixin Liu if these have been translated from Mandarin.
R F Kuang is American and Xiran Jay Zhao is Canadian. They write in English.
Oh, if they were good I’d probably have heard of them then?
There was a time you’d never heard of any of your favourite writers. But then you did and you enjoyed them. If you’d dismissed them with a “how good could they be if I’ve never heard of them?” you’d never have discovered them. Don’t be a twit.
I’m not being a twit, I’m being obnoxious on the internet to amuse myself while I have a virus. I imagine I will check out both of the authors mentioned.
