1) what’s an interesting theme?
2) should it be more science or more fiction?
3) would you want to learn interesting/important facts?
4) would you like it to have romance?
5) should it be complicated, but still undertandable or should it be simple?
6) Do you even like science fiction?
Even if it’s science fiction, it’s sceince so it has to have facts, real things that exist not only fction…
7) does it bother you if the information could be right, but it really isn’t?
Tyvm. I love science fiction and i’m just curious. I’m also a writer so i wanna know.
i have already read the Ender’s and Bean’s octilogy (and i highly recommend them!) as well as the six books of the Hitchhiker’s Guide and all of th Halo books. I haven’t found a single good science fiction book besides these. i also recommend the following list:
ENDER’S SERIES/BEAN’S SERIES
Ender’s Game/Ender’s Shadow
Speaker for the Dead/Shadow of the Hegemon
Xenocide/Shadow Puppets
Childern of the Mind/Shadow of the Giant
HALO SERIES:
Fall of Reach
the Flood
First Strike
the Onyx
HITCHHIKER’S SERIES:
Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy
the Restraunt at the End of the Universe
Life, the Universe, and Everthing
So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish
Young Zaphod Plays it Safe
Mostly Harmless
For me it’s Dune by Frank Herbert. Other authors I liked were Ray Bradbury and George Orwell… I do not consider Stephen King science fiction… he is many things but rarely that. Please don’t answer Dracula, Frakenstein, or and other books that are based more on horror than on actual science fiction.
Please do not put the Bible… even if you believe it’s fiction… it is NOT science fiction.
