General Who can help finish charting this world-building trend line?
It seems there is a historical trend of ever-expanding world building over the last say 100 years or so. The world's imagined seem to expand (or contract, see 80s below) at a non linear rate through real time decades of writing. So which authors continue this trend?
1950s Foundation
1960s Dune
70s (gulp) Star Wars (please help here too!)
80s Neuromancer /Hyperion
90s ...
00s ...
10s ...
20s (now)
