For those who are looking for authors in this intriguing genre, following is a list of SOME of those who write in this theme. I haven’t read works by all of them, so please feel free to comment if somebody has snuck in inadvertently”¦and, by all means, mention some of your favorites if I have left somebody off (maybe somebody will mention the one that I can’t for the life of me remember, lol).
