The socialists have the amazing and singular fiction of Kurt Vonnegut and, by extension, Kilgore Trout. (If you haven't read Sirens of Titan, do it now!)
Hawkish small-government get the later work of Robert Heinlein.
Workers rights advocates have Upton Sinclair.
And so on.
All sorts of political ideologies have an ambassador author who produces work ranging from above-average to exceptional.
Except . . . libertarians.
Why is there no half decent libertarian fiction author?
If you look hard enough you might bump into the inane and inconsistent ramblings of Ayn Rand, but that's about where it stops.
Or am I missing something?
