Not that I've read either story, but I've also heard it owes a bit to Poul Anderson's " Call Me Joe". As familiar and as entirely legitimate as the observations of Avatar's unoriginality is, it does interest me that every other two accusations accuses it of ripping off completely different source material. |
Larceny is the sincerest form of flattery!!
I haven't read "Call Me Joe" in decades either, I"ll have to poke in my Hugo Winners volumes, I think it's there.
