Science Fiction

Stranger in a Strange Land by Robet A. Heinlein is a classic.

I also enjoyed Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card (although I didn't enjoy the ones that came after as much).

Thanks for your ideas, Barb. I'll also add that I really enjoyed reading your blog. My grammar's far from perfect, but I try my best, and am always looking for somewhere to turn with questions.

Hi,

I would like to suggest that you should read some of the Literary Criticism articles for you to enjoy and digest how this characters are made and likewise determine the style of the creator of these charaters in a movie or in a story.

"Between the strokes of night", this is my fave Sci fi novel. it transports you a wazillion years into the future, when there exist a race that lives for a gajillian number of years, "the immortals".

Good science fiction, eh? I would personally recommend the following:

Dune by Frank Herbert

Neuromancer by William Gibson

The Martian Chronicles by Ray Bradbury

Slaughterhouse-Five by Kurt Vonnegut

I should warn you that some of these titles are more like sci-fi/fantasy, and, in the case of just about every Vonnegut novel, s

I found the Martian Chronicles to be so sad!

Yes, Dune is certainly a classic.

I prefer science fiction movie & TV series.

Matrix, Terminator, X files are my favorites.

Try reading Brief History of Time by Stephen Hawkings...it's a good book...

hi

I would recommend you any book from Isaac Assimov, most of them are situated in such a far future, that the eart is not even known. The best books he's written are the foundation series: The first one is prelude to foundation. If anyone is interested I got the e-book in pdf, as well as some other Asimov books.
