Illuminae!
I just bought this series I haven’t read them yet though. I’ve been reading a lot of space list. My whole TBR list is space books
The audio books for this series are full cast, sound effects and pure awesome.
Awesome. I’ll have to check those out. Where do you buy your audio books?
I use overdrive and hoopla with my library card and its free.
Otherwise, Google just announced that they’re offering ebooks now through Google books, and it’s roughly the same deal as Audible, minus the monthly fee. I know Amazon always offers to add the audio file if they have it when I buy ebooks as well.
Alright cool I’ll check them out. Thanks
Threshold a great trilogy starts with The Outback Stars
There’s
Saturn run
The expanse series!!!
The Long Way to a Small Angry Planet by Becky Chambers!
The Martian
I’ve seen the movie but not the book.
The book is much better! And you’ll see a sarcastic Mark, but very very funny in the same time.
Old Man’s War series by John Scalzi
The Loneliest Girl In The Universe
Amish Vampires in Space by Kerry Nietz
Stranger in a strange land?
Enders Game
The zodiac by romina Russell
I LOVE this book. I’ve read the first one I haven’t read the others yet
One series where I actually like the sequel (Wandering Star, I haven’t read the last two yet) better than the first book! So good!
Defy The Stars
Red rising
Illuminae
Artemis
I definitely second the Expanse series.
if you like Young adult sci-fi books I can recommend the ILLUMINAE files by Amie Kaufman & Jay kristoff, the Starbound trilogy by Amie Kaufman & Meagan Spooner, Defy the Stars by Claudia Gray and Shadow run by Adrianne Strickland & Michael Miller. Those are my absolute favorites among sci-fi at the moment <3
Thank you i will check those out ?
Thank you everyone. Keep them coming. I’m loving all these suggestions. I’m going to just have a sci fi reading year this year lol
there are several new Young adult sci-fi being released this years as well! Amie Kaufman & Meagan Spooner just released the first book in a new sci-fi series called Unearthed.
Then there’s all of these other young adult sci-fi books still coming our way this year as well:
– honor among thieves by rachel caine
– heart of iron by ashley poston
– obsidio by jay kristoff & amie kaufman (book 3 in the illuminae files)
– the final six by alexandra monir
– defy the worlds by claudia gray (sequel to defy the stars)
And I’m sure there are a lot more sci-fi releases this year but I mainly focus on the YA books. I do plan on reading Artemis soon, because I’m very excited about reading an adult sci-fi book as well.
The Illustrated Man by Ray Bradbury is a collection of short stories that mostly take place in space.
We are the ants
Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy!
Orson Scott Card author
Ender’s Game
Aurora by Kim Stanley Robinson. Any of his “Planet” books: Red Planet, Blue Planet, etc. Seveneves by Neal Stephenson. Both of Andy Weir’s books, The Martian and Artemis. I am a huge fan of hard science fiction, so I could list a dozen more.
Most of the suggestions I’m seeing are not hard sci-fi. I think it’s an acquired taste, haha.
Feel free to send me a message with a longer list lol
Variable Star by Spider Robinson and Robert Heilein
“All The Stars Are Suns” is about how we reach the stars… (Full Disclosure: I’m the author)
Awesome I’ll check it out
The Martian
I definitely recommend Nyxia by Scott Reintgen!
I actually got t hst in one of my subscription boxes! Can’t wait to read it!
@Leah That’s awesome! Hope you enjoy it(:
Haven’t read either yet but my friend said the martian and Artemis are really good.
Most definitely the Zodiac series, it’s absolutely AMAZING
Brass Man by Clive Cussler
check out Isaac Asimov, I love his robot novels.
Theirs not to reason why, Jean Johnson
Across The Universe trilogy of Alienated trilogy. I don’t read much space themed books.
Artemis
Red Rising ?
Illuminae and Gemina
Defy the Stars
Defy the Stars by Claudia Gray
Dune
The Martian was really good
Zenith
How to Live Safely in a Science Fictional Universe by Charles Yu
Illuminae series
Artemis by Andy Weir
A Fire Upon the Deep and A Deepness in the Sky by Vernor Vinge, some absolutely stunning space opera. while they’re loosely related, they don’t have to be read in order.
Diabolic by S J Kincaid
Across the Universe trilogy by Beth Revis
zenith!!
172 hours… I think it’s like a horror book set in space!
