This represents a summary of all books recommended, mostly in rec.arts.books, that I've saved the recommendation for. The list spans three years, and includes other book lists. The listings span the range from banned (or attempts made) books to those recommended for children, current bedside reading to books that changed someone's life. The only consistent feature of the books on this list is that someone posted on the net that they recommended it for some purpose. Almost all of the books present are ones I haven't read (which is probably what prompted me to save the note!) and some are books I've read and didn't like much. But, since others do, they're here. The list is somewhere over 1250 books long. You should be able to find something interesting here. Authors A-F

BRIDGE OF BIRDS
by Barry Hughart
Del Rey
278pp/$5.99/May 1985 Reviewed by Steven H Silver Bridge of Birds begins with the children of the seventh-century Chinese village of Ku-fu falling prey to a strange plague. One of the villagers, Lu Yu (usually called Number Ten Ox), is sent by the village elders to Peking to find a sage who can help cure the children. Due to lack of funds, Number Ten Ox has a difficult time finding a sage, until he stumbles across Master Li Kao, a self-described scholar with a slight flaw in his character. Li Kao agrees to look into the case despite the small retainer. When he visits Ku-fu, he quickly diagnoses the problem. The remainder of the novel proceeds in a very episodic nature as Number Ten Ox and Li Kao track down the various requirements for a cure. Number Ten Ox and Li Kao use wiles, deceit, and occasionally Number Ten Ox's strength to attain the objects of their quests. Each quest involves the two in tall tales, seemingly unrelated to everything which has happened before, although the two adventurers keep returning to Ku-fu to see if their latest cure will work. Eventually, Hughart does tie all the episodes together in a masterful way which will send the reader back through the book to find clues to the ultimate conclusion. Hughart was careful to leave a trail of clues throughout the book which leads to the denouement, although few of them are obvious until the solution is revealed.

This list is a sampler of some of my favorites, from among thousands of fine works. It also includes a few of my personal favorites from my own work. It does not pretend to be exhaustive. I have listed relatively few very recent works. That's because I can't keep up! Look for some excellent reference works toward the end of the list. Linked titles will open a new browser window displaying that book at Amazon.com. (I hope to continue adding these links as time allows.) If you have a title suggestion, send it to me at jeff@starrigger.net along with a brief description. I'll add it to the list of your recommendations
For a good introduction (and for younger readers)
Barnes, John Orbital Resonance (teenagers cope with life in a hollowed-out asteroid)
Butterworth, Oliver P. The Enormous Egg (Great book for kidsabout a boy whose chicken lays a triceratops egg!)
Carver, Jeffrey A. Dragons in the Stars , and the longer and more complex Dragon Rigger (starflight leads to encounters with a realm of dragons, and a centuries-old struggle)

Barry Hughart
Amerikanischer Autor (*1934)

Ein amerikanischer Autor und der fernöstliche Zauber
Über Barry Hughart ist vergleichsweise wenig bekannt, und das, obwohl bislang drei Romane von ihm veröffentlicht und in mehrere Sprachen übersetzt wurden. Die Bücher um Meister Li und Nummer Zehn der Ochse sind schon längst nicht mehr nur ein Geheimtipp für Freunde phantastischer Literatur, sondern erfreuen sich eines ständig wachsenden Leserkreises außerhalb dieses Genres. Immer mehr Leser entdecken die abenteuerliche Welt in einem mystischen China im Jahr 3337, dem Jahr des Tigers (oder anders ausgedrückt: 639 n. Chr.), das es so nie gegeben hat. Barry Hughart wurde am 13. März 1934 in Peoria, Illinois geboren. Sein Vater war John Harding Page, Offizier in der Marine, seine Mutter Veronica war Architektin - ihr Mädchenname lautete Hughart. Barry wuchs auf einer Farm in Arizona auf und machte 1956 seinen Abschluss an der Columbia University. Was hat Hughart, einen Sohn des amerikanischen Mittelwesten, dazu bewogen seine Geschichten im alten China anzusiedeln?

I have also included a list of authors appearing in the lists on this site for whom I cannot, despite reasonably diligent searching, locate a dedicated web siteor, in many cases, very much information at all. If you perchance are a fan of one of those authors who might want to start up a site yourself, here is a downpage link to that list, no-site authors (I am in the process of changing the nature of this page. As each author receives his or her full writeup essaya process proceeding slowly, from the top down by stars count, then alphabeticallythe link here will be changed to a link to the Other Resources section of that author's individual page, where there will be a fuller listing, and some description, of available links, and sometimes of notable books of criticism or biography.)
