Anything by Gene Wolfe. Anything by Michael Swanwick. Joan Vinge. William Gibson. Kim Stanley Robinson. etc.

Liked Neville’s Ringworld universe. Alastair Reynolds ain’t bad. Neville/Pournelle’s Mote series was great.

So liking Hugo Award winners before 2010 is bad, but liking them after 2010 is good? At least we both agree that there was a sea change in what the award meant around that point.

All of those. Love CJ Cherryh. Bujold had some good stuff. Liked Mieville’s and Gaiman’s earlier stuff more than their latter. Neal Stephenson is hit or miss for me.

Perdido Street Station is the best thing Mieville ever wrote, BTW. Fite me. STILL can’t get those wings out of my head.

Look at the books the didn't win because there were even better books that year: Dorsai!, The High Crusade, Too Many Magicians, Flowers for Algernon, Slaughterhouse Five, The Mote in God's Eye, Marooned in Real Time. Compare those with the dreck that's won in recent years.

Solid advice. Last time I looked to the Hugo’s for a recommendation, I ended up reading Way Station by Clifford Simak.
