So far I devoured "Embassytown" and "Perdido Street Station". The universe he described are something I rarely seen before, mixing steam-punk, with insects and other weird world descriptions, pulp, horror.
List SF authors and books which had the most influence on me:
- Jules Vernes: 20000 miles under the sea but more importantly Robur the Conqueror.
- Philip Kindred Dick: The Man in the high castle, Dr Bloodmoney, Time out of JOint
- H.G.Wells: the invisible man, The Island of Doctor Moreau. The Time Machine
- Frederic Brown: Martians Go Home, What Mad Universe
- H.P.Lovecraft
- Richard Matheson: I am a legend
- John Brunner: Stand on Zanzibar
- Robert A. Heinlein: Starship Troopers
- Arthur C.Clarke
- A.E. Van Vogt
