Seems like I’m not the only one who thinks Geoff Ryman’s Air: Or, Have Not Have is an absolutely brilliant novel.

From his guest blogging duties at Omnivoracious, Richard K Morgan:

There has to be a reason why books like DBC Pierre’s Vernon God Little or Yann Martel’s Life of Pi walk off with the Booker prize, while Geoff Ryman’s Air isn’t even short-listed (and it sure as shit ain’t about how good they are, because Ryman’s book pisses all over the other two in every meaningful measure there is of literary quality).

I’ve recommended few novels with as much gusto as I have Ryman’s.
