An interesting interview with a sci-fi author who decided to go against the political grain.

An Interview with Author Andrew Fox

I’ve not read his stuff, but he seems like he’s on the right track. He has produced fiction that shocks the modern conscience by being non-woke. Might be worth a look. Conservative and libertarian science fiction is basically what science fiction was in the days of Heinlein and Leinster and Anderson, back when Men Were Real Men and Capable Men saved the day against space emperors and bug-eyed monsters. You know, when science fiction was *good.* To contrast with THIS RUBBISH.

His most recent books on Amazon:

 

The Amazon description of “Hazardous Imaginings:”

Science fiction is NOT a safe space!

Two short novels and three stories by the author of Fat White Vampire Blues push the boundaries of taboo in science fiction. An English archeologist who yearns for the love of a young Jewish refugee sets out to convince a majority of the world’s population that the Holocaust never happened — hoping to not only wipe it from the annals of history, but also from reality. The Martian colony Bradbury sends an investigator to pursue a gay Uyghur murderer in a future Australian city where members of each ethnic and grievance group are invisible to all those who don’t belong to their tribe. A far-future academic treatise describes a rediscovered Fusionist liturgical text that combines the writings of radical feminist Joanna Russ and female slavery fantasist John Norman. An aggressively therapeutic State of Florida lovingly wraps its bureaucratic tentacles around those it deems unenlightened. A born-again Christian cafeteria worker in a small Texas college town becomes the only friend of an insectoid alien come to evacuate humanity from a doomed Earth. These stories leave no sacred cows unprodded.
