[Marburg]

The Plague Dogs & Watership Down by Richard Adams

& also, get to reading 2001, 2010 & 2063 by Arthur C. Clarke. It's so epic it can neuter a persons faith in a god:crazy:

I'm thinking of reading the Foundation series myself actually. Isn't there a movie adaption coming soon?

If you want to try some classic Sci-Fi read 20,000 Leagues under the sea by Jules Verne.

[Taneru]

I found the Vatta's War series by Elizabeth Moon to be a very good read.

First book in the set is Trading In Danger, I believe.

Quite surpised no one said Frank Herbert's Dune, or the Prelude to Dune books written by his son. I've read House Atreides, Harkonnen, The Bulterian Jihad, and The Machine Crusade. Currently starting to read The Battle of Corrin. I'd have to say that these books seem to be focuses heavily on individual characters as well as politics. Just a list of books below if you're interested, and yes it's Science Fiction.

A Day in the Life of an NPC | Coin | The Journal of Caius Oakley | Build Your Dream Boat

[kingvaillant]

Some good authors:

Peter F. Hamilton (The Night's Dawn Trilogy / Commonwealth Saga)
Kim Stanley Robinson (Mars Trilogy)
Richard Morgan (Takeshi Kovacs novels, not for young minds)
Karen Travis (Wess'har series)
Timothy Zahn (Conqueror's Trilogy)


I will soon start the Void Trilogy from Hamilton. Once I get my rear end off my chair

Director of the Liberty Security Force: Fidelity, Bravery and Integrity

The Amundsen Zone-21 Restrictions

[oZoneRanger]

Hitchhiker's guide through the galaxy

Yes..this is a must.

and another one I enjoyed but completely disagree with the authors later achievements.

BattleField Earth. L.Ron.Hubbard. The movie was CACA, the worst, but the book was a decent read. Loved the role the Scottish play in it.

[Tomtomrawr]

Peter F. Hamilton is a brilliant British Sci-Fi author. Look him up on Wikipedia. I've only read one of his massive trilogies, which was the Night's Dawn trilogy, but it was truly a spectacular and thrilling read. The three books of the trilogy are the Reality Dysfunction, the Neutronium Alchemist and the Naked God.

Another Sci-Fi author who's book I'm currently reading is William Gibson. Again, look him up on Wikipedia. His book that I'm reading is Neuromancer.

Peter F. Hamilton (The Night's Dawn Trilogy / Commonwealth Saga)
I will soon start the Void Trilogy from Hamilton. Once I get my rear end off my chair

Yay, another Hamilton fan. For some reason my dad gave me the third book of the Void Trilogy when I haven't read the other two. I don't have time for another Hamilton trilogy at the moment, they're so long.

Anything Phillip K. Dick will suit you
Metro 2033 is fun
Anything Arthur C. Clarke will suit you
Dune stuff and side books are like 20 books, they are also good. Original 6 books are A.W.E.S.O.M.E.

I didn't read sci fi for a while now, have to check my shelves for additional titles.


Edit: Its The Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy.
