Top 3 Sci Fi Book submitted by kwarren on June 24, 2015, 10:42am This is one of the greatest Sci Fi books ever written. It has inspired countless other books and was even the inspiration for the Star Wars movies. Great story set on a beautiful planet.

Essential Science Fiction Novel submitted by MicahP on June 23, 2016, 12:51pm This book is significantly different from the usual science fiction or fantasy books you read. Extensive universe and interesting characters. Definitely recommend this book for the science fiction reader.

Richly Crafted Sci Fi submitted by cballard on July 11, 2018, 11:00am The book starts off in a very unusual way, with something that looks like a journal entry that doesn't seem to make much sense. It takes a while to get a handle on the the characters and the items/people/places that are referenced in the book. Give it a chance and keep reading--you will be rewarded with one of the most well designed and elaborately crafted works of science fiction ever published.

Best Science Fiction Book submitted by kath on July 20, 2021, 9:32pm This book is a whole other level. It is one of the best books of the genre. the next books in the series are not as good and get progressively worse. But this is fabulous.
