He’s gone now but I liked Robert Forward for his in depth technical descriptive nature. However he was an actual physicist and free market proponent.

He was smart enough to recognize that alien intelligence was more trouble than it was worth.

Cory Doctorow has to be in there somewhere.

I'll be making sure that the grandsons get to read him and Card, along with Heinlein.

Aw, I was just thinking about him. RIP - he was a truly great hard SF writer.

Shameless self promotion, but if you like military sci-fi, check out my book Bright Horizons.

When I was a kid I remember the ABC’s

Asimov, Bradbury, Clarke... Heinlein was discovered later
