There is scarcely an award that James Gunn hasn’t won, or a distinguished position in the fantasy and science fiction world he hasn’t held. A few minutes reviewing his accomplishments is time well spent. The most significant of his honors is Grand Master for a lifetime of achievement placing him at the pinnacle of accomplishment in science fiction. He earned it not just for his books, of which there are many of great distinction, but for the service he has rendered to the literary genre and the giants and pioneers like himself who created it. He is also an archivist and scholar who has preserved drafts, correspondence, and historical information that satisfy our curiosity about the authors and processes behind the books themselves.
E-Reads has a solid block of Gunn’s work, and today we’re happy to feature two favorites at the top of everyone’s Gunn chart, The Dreamers and the The Listeners.
