I am also:

Hal Clement (Harry C. Stubbs)

A quiet and underrated master of "hard science" fiction who, among other things, foresaw integrated circuits back in the 1940s.

Which science fiction writer are you?

This is a bit of a surprise. While I've read at least half a dozen of Hal Clement's works, I prefer Poul Anderson and Jack Vance. Anderson because of his future history with Nicholas Van Rijn and Dominic Flandry, and Vance because his human characters act stranger than most of the alien characters of other authors.

Poul Anderson and Jack Vance

How are you on Theodore Sturgeon or Larry Niven?
