Name your favorite sci fi or fantasy books

[2 Up 2 Down]

Neuromancer will always be my number 1

The Aubrey Knight trilogy is great because the MC is a breh. (Street Lethal, Gorgon Child, Firedance)

The Nightside series is really enjoyable.

Empire Star was great.

Burning chrome is a must.

Snow Crash is basically our future.

The Elric Series is also a must.

The Balad of Black Tom is a great story.

I just recently bought Elric of Melniboné: The Elric Saga vol 1. I just started Lord of the Rings but once I'm done I'll hop on that

Star Wars Expanded Universe books are fire.

Thrawn Trilogy
The New Jedi Order Series
Fate Of The Jedi Series
Darth Plagueis

fukk Disney for shytting on the Expanded Universe. They were written by some of the most respected sci fi writers, and would have made dope movies in the right hands. They were approved by George Lucas and part of the official canon until Disney fukked that up.

Yoooooooooooooooooo another Zahn fan.

Definitely a criminally underrated writer who has a good penchant for world building, it's why his works are so immersive.

Timothy Zhan is that guy.

 

[Neuromancer]

Elric is the Anti LoTR. Moorcock hated Tolkien

 

[Neuromancer]

The Deathstalker series is also a real good one well most of Simon R Green's work is really good.

Do comic books count?

 

[2 Up 2 Down]

Moorcock

I look forward to reading the Elric stuff and then the Von Bek stuff

Seveneves—>Realistic outcome based on today’s tech
Arbre—>If you can make it past the first 200 pages
Memory called empire—>Diplomacy book, original
Aurora—>Realistic outcome of a colony sleeper ship
Hydrogen Sonata-Subliming concept is fascinating

Currently reading Matter. The shell world concept is dope
