What are GAEs best books?
This is necessarily a subjective judgment, but some answer should be attempted to aid readers who want to sample his work. The most commercially successful were the three Marid Audran books, the science fiction detective novels WHEN GRAVITY FAILS, A FIRE IN THE SUN and THE EXILE KISS. In the opinion of the FAQ author, THE WOLVES OF MEMORY was perhaps his best novel. The two playful time travel novels, THE NICK OF TIME and THE BIRD OF TIME are well-regarded. All of the short story collections are good. HEROICS is another good, neglected novel.
