Didn't notice this thread. Not one mention of Greg Egan, my favourite science-fiction author ever. (And I read a lot of science fiction, even short stories published in Analog and Asimovs.)

Hi, everyone. Ya, Greg Egan. Super hard SF. I read Diaspora. Cool. Also Permutation City and 'tried' to read some others. Sometimes hard SF are difficult read. Not that they are no good, just...... but the way Greag Egan manage to make you feel like a nuclear physicist, is plain fanforkintastic. that is if you manage to finish reading them.
Yay! I've never been able to find another Malaysian fan of Greg Egan. Unfortunately, most of Egan's current stuff can't compare to the stuff from the late 1990s. If you haven't already, google for his personal website where he makes available plenty of his short fiction for reading for free.
