"Rightly or wrongly, I wanted to reclaim" science fiction, he said in a 2000 interview with Infinity Plus, "at least in some of its literary manifestations, as a legitimate medium in which to examine age-old human concerns."
His first novel, "A Funeral for the Eyes of Fire" (1975, rewritten in 1980 as "The Eyes of Fire"), involves two human brothers who escape a totalitarian Earth only to find themselves enmeshed in the cultural tensions and political intrigues of a distant planet.
