Reply to comment by Zikoris in What are your thoughts on pacing in new vs older books? by Potential_Crisis

Its not that they are particularly slow, just slow relative to new books. New sci-fi and murder mystery seems overly dramatic and chaotic compared to the writing of Asimov and Agatha Christie.

I read a fair bit of modern sci-fi and mysteries and don't find that, though honestly I don't feel like I read enough older books to really compare.
