Normally I don’t do these but this one has appeared on virtually every nerd authored blog I read so I thought I’d better add my own. I think I was expecting to score as an Asimov or a Clarke rather than Gibson– I was never much a fan of cyberpunk.

Which science fiction writer are you?

Now, everybody do it!
