I'm a big fan of sci fi books, from classics like Asimov and Del Rey to the great works of Susanna Clarke and Neil Gaiman.
I'm currently reading Accelerando by Charles Stross.
Any sci fi fans here? I'd love to exchange comments and suggestions about what to read next. |

| Read Crytomonicon by Neil Stephenson. Great book. I believe it was in the NY Times Best Seller years ago. |

| I enjoy science fiction myself. I like Asimov on occasion but his work is getting a little bit dated for my taste. His works are very good, though. |

| Thanks Black Dragon! I was trying to think of his name when I was writing my last post, because I have one of his anthologies. Now I remember: The Short Happy Life Of The Brown Oxford. I enjoyed it quite a bit. |

All of you if you want to read the best science fiction books ever written,
Read Ender's game and its sequels.
As well as Ender's Shadow and its sequels.
Awell as any other Orson Scott Card books. |

| Jack Ketchum is one my favorite authors. I wish he did more movies like Stephen King. But his movies are a little different. I saw that flick THE LOST and it was crazy. |
