Dark matter by Blake crouch is a must read
That was good! I liked his Pine series too.
I liked Beacon 23 by Hugh, The Sparrow by Russell, Sleeping Giants by Neuvel, and The Abyss by Orson Scott Card. I loved everyone of these.
And Saga is a great sci-fi graphic novel series. I’m not huge on graphic novels but this one was fantastic.
Dawn Chapman
The Stars My Destination – Alfred Bester
Double Star – Robert A Heinlein
From the Dust Returned – Ray Bradbury
The League novels by Sherrilyn Kenyon
Ender’s Game series by Orson Scott Card. Both the Ender Quartet and the Shadow Quartet.
And if you’re into time travel, Domesday Book and To Say Nothing of the Dog, both by Connie Willis.
Doomsday Book is marvelous!
Yes, I loved it! Did you read To Say Nothing of the Dog? It’s similar to Doomsday Book, with one character, James Dunworthy also appearing in this novel.
I second The League Series.
Ender’s Game
“All The Stars Are Suns” for “hard Sci-Fi”…
The Shiva XIV series by Lyra Shanti. I love it.
The Bible
War of the worlds
Old man’s war series by John scalzi
Time enough for Love, Callahan’s Crosstime Soloon, A Fall of Moondust, Stranger in a Strange Land, Theives World, Number of the Beast.
The Silo trilogy by Hugh Howey was amazing. That and Dune are the best sci-fi I have read myself ?
I’m currently reading Dune by Frank Herbert, but as it is the best selling sci-fi book ever, I’m pretty sure you’ve already read it. If you are into video games though, you can try out the Mass Effect series.
Dune to da moooon!
The Spice must flow… so much better than the movie.
Shai Huluud!
Seveneves.
The Fold.

Okay, here goes:
The Foundation series by Isaac Asimov
Embassytown by China Mievelle
Do Andriods Dream Of Electric Sheep by Philip K Dick
Twenty thousand leagues under the sea by Jules Verne
1984 by George Orwell
Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury
Brave New World by Aldous Huxley
Nice list – the last 3 are especially good ? just finished reading a few of vernes books this year too. Really want to read do androids dream…heard good things about it.
@Sean It is a brilliant book. I have not read other works of Philip K Dick but they also come highly recommended.
@Anand it’s high up on my tbr list, I always buy second hand so trying to find some books on my tbr list takes awhile ?
@Sean Ah, live long and prosper!
Don’t forget Edgar Rice Burroughs, he wrote a lot of sci-fi, not just Tarzan.
Any particular recommendations? I have not heard about him.
He is best known for Tarzan, but he wrote a lot of sci-fi, The Moon Maiden, the Barsoom Series, The Land that Time Forgot… lots and lots, btw Barsoom = Mars.
Might try Ursula K. LeGuin
“Ursula K. LeGuin published twenty-two novels, eleven volumes of short stories, four collections of essays, twelve books for children, six volumes of poetry and four of translation, and has received many awards: Hugo, Nebula, National Book Award, PEN-Malamud, etc. Her recent publications include the novel Lavinia, an essay collection, Cheek by Jowl, and The Wild Girls. She lived in Portland, Oregon.”
J. G. Ballard too!
