1. Read another science fiction novel with an imagined near-future setting, such as Wolf and Iron by Gordon Dickson (1990). Compare its "world" with that of A Memory of Dragons. Show how each book's author(s) make you believe in the setting and events even if they are not factually accurate. (If these are not believable, try to explain why not.)
