Discovery is home. I watched the coverage on MSNBC this morning, not relaxing until I heard "Wheels stop."

It's great to have the crew home safe, but I can't help wondering if I have watched the last space shuttle landing.

A number of SF authors have been talking about how written SF has lost the "sense of wonder" which is what originally brought us to the genre as readers.

For me, this is why my mix of SF/F reading has tilted heavily to the F side of the scale in recent years, since that's where I'm finding books that I enjoy reading.

It's a field wide phenomenon.

After all, after zero (as far as I can recall) nominations before the 21st century, four of the last five Hugo winners have been fantasy novels.

Paradigm shift?
