Re: Today is the birthday of one of my favorite writers
The first book I read of hers was "The Ship Who Sang".
I think she is one of the last of the golden age of SciFi writers
They too were favorites of mine.
Ray Bradbury
Robert Heinlein--TANSTAAFL
Arther C Clark
Poul Anderson
Christopher Stasheff--The Warlock in Spite of Himself is a good story about the narrow walk between totalitarianism, and anarchy and a fitting book for our time with a lesson.

Incredible and prolific author. One of my favorites as well.
