'Exhalation' is a revelation, and reminded me how good fiction could be.

The first story in the collection, 'The Merchant and the Alchemist's Gate', instantly rose to the top of my all time favorite short stories.

Yeah that was my favorite as well. And the one about perfect recall memory (remem) was perfect too. He's so good at examining all human implications of a single technological idea. And the prose is quite remarkable for sci-fi.

Concur. That’s the kind of writing that makes me want to sit down and write myself.
