"Everyone should be reading him," says Gwenda Bond of Ryman. "He has profound things to say about the world in which we all find ourselves at the moment, and what may happen next. His most recent novel, Air (or Have Not Have), is not only one of the best pieces of speculative fiction I've ever read, but of literary fiction as well. Ryman's work has been consistently brave and mind-blowing and he deserves to be as well-known as Bruce Sterling, William Gibson, or Neal Stephenson." Air won the 2005 Sunburst Award for Canadian Literature of the Fantastic.
