Minimo Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 You could have a look at Amazon. Specify sci fi and see what comes up. You can read synopses and reviews of books. You don't have to buy from them, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obelix Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Hi all, Please suggest me some good sci-fiction books to read?? The "I" inside - Alan Dean Foster Neuromancer - William Gibson Ringworld + The Ringworld Engineers - Larry Niven Snow Crash - Neal Stephenson Dragon's Egg - Robert Forward Contact - Carl Sagan (much better than the film) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alcoblog Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 I agree with Obelix here ... 'Contact' (Carl Sagan) is an inspirational book. Also, and from a totally opposite perspective (vortex ) ... 'The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy' (Douglas Adams) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mecky Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 I always like reading Brian Aldiss - Equator http://brianaldiss.co.uk/writing/story-collections/collections-c-p/equator/ The spy team from Earth knew they were looking for trouble when they secretly landed in Luna Area 101 – dangerous Rosk territory. But the fearless trio got more than they bargained for at the hand of these hostile guests of Earth. Tyne and Murray escaped with their lives. The third man was dead, and Tyne suspected that Murray had murdered him in cold blood. Ready to confront him with his charge, Tyne discovered that Murray had disappeared somewhere in the banned area. But when he folloed him, he discovered something vastly more dangerous than Murray’s guilt or innocence – the Rosks threatened imminent invcasion of earth. And only Tyne now held the secret that could deflect their hordes of death. Yet he dared trust no one with it – not even himself Bit of a good twist to it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
