Um actually the last time I spoke to you was in the broke hearts valentines hangout thread, which was last February! :O Because I was the nurse sticking band-aids on everyone ^^

well I had been hoveing here for about an hour with no talky, good thing I have RP's

Ummm, I really don't know much of sci-fi... Although I do love the Time series by Madeleine L'Engle. Is that considered sci-fi? O.o

Yay, I love Many Waters as well. ^^ But I really need to reread the whole series, it's been sooo long. Dx I can't even remember which I like best. And I still have yet to read An Acceptable Time.

A warlock in spite of himself by Christopher Stasheff, thats good sci-fi

I'm gonna say Perdido Street Station by China Miéville - it's a nice mix of sci-fi/ fantasy and it is of the gritty almost steampunk dark fantasy variety :yes:

It's a really long book (as a paperback it was over 600 pages long!) - but well worth it (I think) - but I really like China Miéville

I read the book SF novel Uglies the other month. It was very interesting.

Read a lot of dystopic science fiction in my time...I've loved Jurassic Park. What a great novel! I know I should read more interesting sci fi but it's hard to catch my interest.

Also, Knerd, LOVE the XKCD sig. Especially that strip, it was too funny. :D

I would put my vote on The Left Hand of Darkness by Ursula K. Le Guin. (:

2001: a space odyssey.
that is all.

so many good books to choice from. looks like you have a few to pick for the next few days.

1984 will always be one of the best.

And I used to love the Dragons of Pern series, but it's been forever since I've read any of them.

I felt that Todd never should have picked up writing the series, I started reading the first one he had put out and it was not Pern

I always want to do this and I always forget to keep track of the books I read in a year. Haha, maybe I'll start keeping track this summer when I know I will be reading a lot more than I am now.

Also, I think my favorite sci-fi books were ones from when I was a teen. I wish I could remember the name because I'd totally read them again.

I loved 1984, btw. <3

what were they about. maybe one of us book worms would know them.

One of them was a boy who ended up with a clone. And it had a lot about an ocean hideout so no one would find out about the clone. The other was a time machine related one but I don't remember any more than that, haha. :oops: They were from way back in the day. D:

I did that with a vampire book I loved, too. Forgot the title AND author.

oh that bites, pun intended. have not heard of the other books you spoke of. how long ago were they? and vampire book what was it about?

you know I have never acturally read this book but he and his wife are such lovely people. talked to him and her at steamcon. sad I did not get to their panel.

Oh! Tom Clancy's net force series is kind of sci-fi...I remember loving them as a child.

Cami: I love the Dragonriders' series, though I have to agree with Gypsea...Should have let the series end before getting a new author...

he is her son and he killed it, I think he hated it because he mother spent so much time on it, but wanted the money.

I'm not a huge fan of sci-fi and fantasy. But I really loved Slaughterhouse Five, Fahrenheit 451, and Ender's Game. Oh, and of course Harry Potter. I am reading a comical fantasy right now called Once Upon a Marigold, which is actually pretty cool and easy to read.
