Who knows?
I suppose
the love of what's common to sci-fi,
overloaded description, was why
David Mitchell said
The Book Of Strange New Things by Michel Faber
was 'maniacally gripping',
and why Arthur C Clarke said
no-one had surpassed
The First Men In The Moon by H G Wells.
What else
it could be
I can't see.
