Which Samuel Delany novel focused on the main character's final decision to have a sex change in order to find love?

The really annoying thing about this question is I'm positive I've read it - and found it rather disturbing too if memory serves me correctly.

Any clues?

Yeah, I'm trying to think of a good one. I promise I'll post by tomorrow morning with it. Don't know how much longer I'll have the PC tonight.

The main character immigrated to a world (the original title of the book) that was at war with Earth.

Okay, maybe too out there for some. Here is the last hint then I'll give the answer and post a television or movie related sci-fi question if no one gets it.

The main character was said to be a "happily reasonable man" and was named Bron Helstrom.

That's the one Belinda! I have a feeling we are the only two people on the board who have ever read the book.

Now, let's have a stumper from you. [Big Grin]

Ok, so in which book does Arnie Kott and his union control Mars’ entire water supply?

I'll post clues in a day or two if no-one gets it

It features a colony on Mars, schizophrenia, black market operations, strange visions of the future, autism, real estate schemes, adultery and...time slips.

If anyone (other than Scott) has read this book you will definitely guess it after that!

Okay Scott, tell them what it is then. I can't give anymore hints after that last one, I practically gave you the title.

Philip K. Dick's Martian Time-Slip. Which I found to be more of an interesting human study than sci-fi but Dick's books were like that for me.

You got it Scott! And I have to agree his character plotlines were a lot better than his science - in this story anyway.

You're next LL!

Thanks B!

This one may be a gimme as I have probably mentioned it before.

What classic sci-fi television series has close ties to what large religion?

[edit note: making the distinction that this is a television series]

All I can think is Hubbard's Dianetics. But, having never read it, I have no idea.

Sorry, I more the fantasy end of the spectrum than the techy sci-fi.
