I keep meaning to sit down and binge the series but never get around to it...
>>695466434
Foundation, good series.
Athur c Clark
Childhood,s end
>>695466591
You should if you like detailed Sci fi
>>695466591
Foundation, Foundation and Empire and Second Foundation are really good.
I'm going to recommend some space opera(that mass effect apparently ripped most of the plot from).
>>695466978
I think I saw this suggested somewhere, I might give it a go
Also, were ebooks with eink a fad?
>>695466792
>>695466978
I love Asimov's writing...Foundation was just the series I never read is all.
>>695467262
I honestly have no idea, I pirated it and read it on my laptop
Here, have some really dense,detailed, and autistic history.
The King James Bible
>>695466587
>underage spotted
>>695466978
Revelation Space was pretty good. I've heard there are further books in the series, planning to read them.
Very interesting world created, especially loved the light huggers
This book will always be a favorite
Garbage ass movie aside

>>695468240
No kidding. Space Opera with no FTL is really cool.
Time for some weird fantasy.

>>695469189
I fucking loved a dog's purpose. And apparently there was a sequel
>>695468322

Check out the first 5 books of Amber too.

What the hell is this book even about?
The whole sprawl trilogy is pretty good.
Same with his short stories.
Cat's Cradle. So good; one of all time favorites
The picture of Dorian gray
Hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy

another good vonnegut book is Welcome to the Monkey House. read it if you haven't
>>695469778
Get that shit out of here!
I would expect 90% of people to absolutely hate this book but I think it's masterful at being what it is.
>>695468478
yes
>>695470441
Hey man, cyberpunk always has a little bit of edge to it, it's part of the genre.
This is one of the best science fiction books ever.
>>695470521
I read that and catch 22 back to back. Really got me thinking how bat shit insane people are generally
>>695469632
Dostoevsky is awesome, Notes from Underground is great as well and a lot shorter. If you get a copy of any Russian stuff, the Pevear and Volokhonsky translations are some of the best out there.
>young adult anything
>good
Holy shit this whole thread.
>>695468750
this book is fucking garbage, how many books have you read to call this "God Tier" jesus christ
I never read books for fun but I did read Animal Farm by George Orwell in school and I thought it was interesting.
>>695470862
Totally agree.
>>695470914
Post something faggot
I bet in grade school you were the fag that complained any his group sucking but didn't try to help at all
>>695470846
Catch 22 is legitimately hilarious.
>>695470721
Cherryh appeals to a very specific subset of science fiction readers.
I'm going to avoid the obvious Dune, and instead post something else by Herbert.
goddammit, you people make me sick.
>>695466434
Might as well be a book. Freakin' love this story:

>>695469124
>>695469121
Read all these. Deff god-tier. Worthy of the thread
>>695471602
I read part of a translation of that. Could not finish out of sheer boredom. Probably the translater though
Loved the short story Sandkings by George R.R. Martin
>>695470521
K. On my list now
>>695470846
Reminds me I need to read that book

Also reccing pic related, We by Zamyatin (1984's direct influence), Envy by Yuri Olesha, Nikolai Gogol short stories (I love The Portrait and The Nose), Pushkin short stories (The Bronze Horseman), and two Mikhail Bulgakov books I can not recommend enough, Heart of a Dog and Master and Margarita. Master and Margarita is the best book I've ever read, if you read it follow along with the footnotes.
I got a bit carried away, but that's a good primer on Russian Literature,
>>695471373
Yay I'm a subset! I find it interesting how she writes fluently about humans emotions especially dealing with a lack of belonging and also produces the most realistic imaginations of space battles that I believe exist today.
>>695471954
For a pink mohawk flavor, instead of Neuromancer's black trenchcoat, try Snow Crash. It's still cyberpunk, but taken to the other extreme.
>>695472305
I just like her weird aliens.
Fuck it, i'm just going to post the NPR guide. Its a bit dated, and there are some questionable choices, but its mostly alright.
I've never heard of anybody else reading this book series, online or irl
>>695471766
harry potter??? fucking lol fuck off
Apparently Disney approved added Thrawn to the official Star Wars universe.
Not going to be the same as Zahn's amazing trilogy, but with Zahn writing the content for the new character, I expect great things.
This was my favorite of the star wars books, although the bounty hunter tales was close second.
Disney needs to make some bounty hunter themed films
>>695472490
real good, but the diamond age is his best cyberpunk imo
and anathem is better than both, but very different
>>695472411
I already posted it
And you didn't say "sleep tight porker"
Fucking casual
>>695472723
I really liked his Empire from the Ashes trilogy. Heard the Honor series was supposed to be better.
David Weber is another of the good space opera genre.
>>695472764
this moran thinks he's pretty cool.
>>695472490
will do anon.
I finished this book last month. Took forever, I'm proud
>>695472764
come on dude. Its a good book. Everyone knows it.
You just mad because its something everyone knows.
The audio book version is highly entertaining as the narration is perfectly done.
>>695472821
I enjoyed cryptonomicon a lot more than I did his other books.
enders game/enders shadow
>>695472765
of all the books in the world, you choose Star Wars books
>>695470862
This. Warning to that other guy: the names are a bitch.
>>695473103
another great book. Quite imaginative.
>>695473197
you're just salty because you didn't read the book before watching the movie
Don't have the covers but Avery Cates series and Takashi Kovacs series is good I recommend them to cyberpunk fans
>>695472765
Right now he's just in the Rebels cartoon series.
I'd love to see him make it into the movies.
>>695473054
I need to reread it several times.
It is akin to The Bible for Middle Earth.
For anyone that read the bible, there are so many names and places that they lose meaning. Same with The Silmarilion.
Fenor and feonor and femir and feomir and so on...
On that note, Children of Hurin is a pretty sad Tolkien novel. Not every ending is happy in that world.
>>695473274
another good series here...
My absolute favorite
>>695471425
King James, the guy who literally commissioned the King James Bible (duh), was openly homosexual. How's that shit for ya?
>>695469021
Why haven't you died in a fire?
>>695472699
Oh that is really interesting! I don't like her aliens so much. I only really read the Alliance-Union universe books.
>>695466434
Dammit you're gonna make me have to read Foundation again!
>>695473270
Didn't like it as much as I thought I would, but really want to watch the series on Amazon
I'm not sure god tier but I finished reading The Making of the Atomic Bomb by Richard Rhodes. Very detailed account of the discoveries in physics leading up to the first experiments that proved fission chain reaction was possible, the Manhattan project, and the eventual use of the bombs in Japan.
>>695473197
That is probably the 5 or 6th different book i've posted in this thread.
It is good, but certainly not the best book of all time.
Much better than that Yuuzan Vong bullshit or those horrid prequels.
>>695473573
has nothing to do with that book being objectively a god tier book.
>>695473472
and of course, the Martian. Really is a great book. I read it first, then the audio book. Audio book performance was wonderful.
read it twice
>>695472765
I think there have been talks about doing a boba fett movie, also I think they are supposed to do a han solo origin movie.
>>695471929
Good book but i don't like Ellroy's use of real world people as fictional characters so much.
>>695469121
Just as shitty as twilight. The main character barely does anything for himself. Success through social relevance. That's why the world is the way it is.
>>695473240
Especially in the longer novels, Crime and Punishment, Anna Karenina, etc.
It helps to know how Russian names work, but the nickname system just fucks everything up unless you have a native speaker or teacher helping you through it. My Russian Lit teacher made us keep a character list for every book we read.
More weird aliens.
Battle Royale
Can't believe it hasn't been mentioned yet
>>695466434
Oh fuck, this is a good thread, im fapping
>>695471425
Great comedy
>>695473715
We will see you in 2-3 weeks. God's speed.
First book for Avery Cates trilogy
>>695468568
fuck off with your shitty puns nigger
>>695473423
With Rogue One coming out, they might start picking all sorts of times and plots within the greater universe.
I do hope they omit everything from the prequels. Pretend it didn't happen and make up their own new ideas.
>>695473905
The area 51 series was also pretty entertaining. The early books have a lot of actual historical references which are worked into the narrative, which makes it more interesting if you like history at all.
did anyone else really enjoy the halo books?
>>695473918
Good choice.
Even more weird aliens.
I really love all of these bizarre cover art choices on the older editions.
I read this book for school, but is easily my favorite book after reading it.
>>695469129
My man, anything bukowski is amazing.
Takashi Kovcas first book
>>695473905
I loved the book, and found the film to be almost on par.
They stuck pretty well to the science and plot. Often times Hollywood will throw in aliens and explosions and butcher the plot, but not that time.
>>695473903
I never commented on the tier of the book. If reading that shit gets you hard, good for you. Just throwing in a fact i thought was interesting.
>>695473725
Watched it when it came out. It's pretty good, but quite a bit more different from the book.
>>695474254
>We will see you in 2-3 weeks. God's speed.
I'm older now so maybe a bit longer kek
Got me through college
>>695474411
That is a great book. Classic sci-fi
>>695474585
Well that might be a good thing then, I'll have to check it out
What with the cyberpunk in the thread, I'm going to suggest Netrunner, if you like card/board games. Captures the feel perfectly. Solid game too.
>>695474037
>My Russian Lit teacher made us keep a character list for every book we read.
Yeah that's a good idea with Dostoevsky. He refers to his characters by at least three names interchangeably; first name, last name, shortened first name or nickname.
>>695468652
yeah, having no ftl drive makes for some interesting stories like in enders game or xenophobia
>>695475121
That particular universe cheats it a little though, they do kind of have a plot device that I don't want to spoil for the people who haven't read the books.
>>695474585
it will be interesting to see what they do in the future seasons since it got to the end of the book
>>695475121
You might like the C.J.Cherry books too then.
This shit right here. Logan nine fingers is my favorite protagonist of all time
>>695475121
speaking of which, A Fire Upon The Deep by Vernor Vinge. It has FTL in spots, but the book has a universe where it is only possible in a particular part of the galaxy. This is one of my favorite sci-fi books and I'm generally not a fan of fiction at all.
>>695466434
Here is a book 4 yeah
>>695468729

>>695476108
Yes! This book. Man. Read it. I don't care what genre you're normally in to. This book is best book.
>>695468652
>>695475121
>Space Opera with no FTL is really cool.
I've really been enjoying the Expanse series on Scifi which is basically a space opera or political thriller confined to our solar system.
I've heard the books are excellent; but I enjoyed the show so much that I'm conflicted whether I should read them and spoil the show.
>>695476108
This looks pretty interesting
>>695473172
Was great, but try anathem. Probably the best book I have read in years, and quite a technical achievement
>>695476172
It just takes so fucking long to get going
This whole series was great.

>>695475095
It can be even more complicated than that, even.
First name, Patronymic (from the father's name), and last name, and then a bunch of nicknames based on how close you are to a person and the formality of the occasion.
An example, from Chekov's Seagull: the main character's full name is Constatin Gavrilovich (son of Gavril or whatever) Treplev, and his most used nickname in the play is Kostya, which his mother uses to subtly demean him or guilt him, and people also call him by his last name semi-informally, by his first and patronymic in a conversation if they had just met, and by just his first name, also in semi-informal conversation.
I'm pretty sure he only gets one nickname in the play, but in some books people get multiple and it actually has something to with the story.
>>695476774
No fucking kidding. When nothing happens for three hundred pages, you really notice how Niven cannot write interesting characters to save his life.
>>695476776
yes it was too bad they are fucking up the movie!
Neuromancer was a great book tho
>>695477090
Second book had so many fucking grammatical errors I couldn't read it
>>695466434
Good ole hair seldom. Asimov must have had a hard on for actuaries. I loved the 3rd act of that book
>>695477200
>>695477200
maybe that's why I didn't read it, can't remember
>>695477090
I think that Idris Elba would totally own the role of Roland. It does seem like the kind of character he was born to play.
I would hope that this is a case of making changes for the sake of the actor, and not for cheap PC points.
>>695467306

Bret easton ellis' American Psycho. Even the movie with Christian Bale is recommendable.

pretty derivative, but a fresh style for the genre
it's like tarantino writing grimdark
everyone should definitely check it out.
the other best recent fantasy tril imo is the prince of nothing by trilogy by bakker

>I think that Idris Elba would totally own the role of Roland
what about the whole susannah and civil rights? Roland was white, that dynamic will be gone
is this a literary masterpiece or just cringy millennial shit? Honestly cant tell, but I liked it.
>>695476776
i love this series...
BUT
the gunslinger POWERGAP dott > the wastelands POWERGAP the rest
This is a good read
>>695478384
I meant in terms of character, demeanor, and the like.
If you want to still have Detta, you can have her call Elba a race traitor, Uncle Tom and the like.
We also don't know if a sequel is getting made or not. it's contingent on the sucess of the first movie.
Here, probably the most accessible of the Culture novels. I do think Use of Weapons is the best of the lot though.
>>695479334
the Culture novels are really underrated
>>695476215
Fuck you
The alchemist
Of the Eternal Champion stuff that Moorcock wrote, Elric really is the most well know, and I would love a movie, but I think of the lot, Corum is my favorite.

House of Leaves by Mark Danielewski.
The TIme Ships and Vacuum Diagrams by Stephen Baxter (Hard SF)
The Name of the Rose by Umberto Eco (Historical Murder Mystery)
If On A Winter's Night A Traveler by Italo Calvino (Postmodernist)
The Warp World series is practically unknown but I came across at a gaming store. It's was pretty hardcore if you like something that doesn't use the standard formula for writing scifi/fantasy. If you like 40k stuff, this is even better.

>>695482794
i only watched the first episode of the show, but from that I didn't like it much. It seemed like they were trying to make quentin seem like "chosen one" or some mysterious special guy. In the book I liked how all quentins friends are arguably better than he is in most ways while quentin is just some smater than average guy who dicks around and pisses everyone off.
Do you think I should still watch the show though?
>>695467323
The gods themselves was pretty wonderful
>>695483651
I like the whole aspect of magic & technology developing side by side.
Being a Green Mother pissed me off though
