I would recommend _Where Time Winds Blow_ by Robert Holdstock. It is from 1981 and fits nicely into your "messed up" Sci Fi. It is wrapped in a dense mystery where the reader is not sure what is happening and the framework of time slippage. The bonus for you is that it also has a "ghost" or ghostly aspect. Nothing is what it seems. It really is messed up!

Rec: Stephen Donaldson's Gap Cycle. It's a Space Opera, is very psychological and has lots of political intrigue. And all the trigger warnings. Basically all of them. If you want to read an author who goes all in on trauma and has superb characterization, you should try it. It has at least 2-3 characters I hate as much as Joffrey. But there also good characters to latch onto. One downside could be that it's 5 books, although the first one is a novella, if you're not looking for a longer series.

As far as messed up goes: I still clearly remember every horrifying scene in Alistair Reynolds' Magnum Opus House Of Suns. Unlike his Revelation Space universe, he doesn't follow his usual gothic features here. I'd also highly recommend Reynolds' The Prefect (Aurora Rising) taking place before Revelation Space, this is his murder mystery. I can't remember if you like Steven King, or if you have read The Long Walk or The Running Man. Both game shows that end in almost certain horrible death. Have you read Richard Matheson's I Am Legend? It deserves the hype, especially when it comes to after reading it. Also along the line, I'm assuming you have read Max Brooks' World War Z, if not hoo-boy it's a doozie!

Hi Rachel. I have 3 points to make (sorry!): 1. Almost everything I read is sci-fi or fantasy, but last year I happened to read Pride and Prejudice on a whim and it's absolutely wonderful. It's an incredibly funny social commentary more than a romance. Never say never! 2. I'm right there with you on The Book of the New Sun. First read didn't go so well, but the re-read with the benefit of knowing a bit more about what to expect was amazing and it has catapulted the series into my top 5 easily. Wolfe was a genius. 3. Messed up sci-fi: Hyperion. I think you're planning to read Hyperion soon. That book had some scenes and concepts that really fucked me up. Although I'm not a horror reader so maybe you'll find it tame. I hope not though. Cheers, Roy

I'll try The City Inside and Dare to Know. Don't think I have them yet. I do have Under Fortunate Stars (downloaded two days ago, need to read it before library due date arrives). The Chosen 12 starts off like YA--very young adult, closer to age 13--because the protagonists are basically 12 years old. It starts off light, lots of joking, silly situations, banter, like a breezy Scalzi novel, but after the halfway point it begins to get darker. I ended up really enjoying it, probably 4-star read. Can't think of any messed up scifi I'd recommend right now. Must be something. If I recall one, I'll comment again. Started S.K. Dunstall's The Lineman because I enjoyed their Stars Uncharted and Stars Beyond books. Only about 70 pages into The Linesman, and am already invested in it. Intriguing and original concepts. I have to see where they take these ideas.

😳🚀📚 For 'messed up SF' I straight away thought of Stephen Donaldson's “The Gap Cycle” from the 90’s, which I recall being uncomfortable reading. I’m not a stabby-boy, so as you suspect of your viewership I swerve both that dark stuff and the matching #BookTube episodes normally. But Duncan Swan's “Monstre” falls into SF horror that I did enjoy. I happened upon that one via the Ficticious podcast. Wasn’t familiar with your mates Moid and Michael, but since I think SF > Fantasy I’ll check them out. FWIW, I also tend to prefer your format of TV show to the glossier efforts… 🧐 I very much tend to hard swerve YA but have dipped down there for specific reasons - e.g. I love Alastair Reynolds, full stop, so I do have his “Revenger” series despite it being a bit YA. Cannot stand romance and many of the YA tropes though 🤮
