Science Fiction

I'm halfway through Aurora by Kim Stanley Robinson. I didn't know anything about this book other than it was about a generation ship but I'm really enjoying it. Every time I pick up one of his books I can't believe how good the science is, dude really digs into everything

I just started reading "The Curse of Chalion" bu Lois McMaster Bujold, following a rather specific fantasy itch that was most recently scratched by "The Goblin Emperor" (by Sarah Monette) and before that by the Valdemar series, particularly the Arrows of the Queen and Winds of Fate series. I hope it delivers!

I recently finished Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir and Wool by Hugh Howey, currently reading Shift. We had the Silo trilogy in our bookshelf for years, but it was only after watching the Apple TV show I decided to read it.

I have a somewhat newfound low for hard sci-fi and would love any recommendations folks have.

I'm almost done the Lords of Uncreation which is book 3 of The Final Architecture. Quite the epic space opera. Then I will pick up Wool as season 1 of the TV series will be concluded.

I'm Listening currently because it's convenient at work but, Finishing the Bobiverse for my 3rd go around

I DNFed Altered Carbon by Richard K. Morgan. I had high hopes because the concept was reminiscent of Philip K Dick's stories but I found the book to be a confusing slog with characters seemingly pulled from nowhere and with the plot muddling along with coincidences and revelations. There are a few gems of ideas in there, just takes too long to unpack.

State Tectonics, third book of the Centenal Cycle by Malka Older. It's not bad so far, but it feels like too artificial. Like the setting doesn't make much sense, the author just wanted to play with it. Yes, same applies to the first two books. I liked the first one much more to be honest.

Just started "The City We Became" by N.K. Jemisen. It took a minute for me to get my bearings, but I'm really digging the concept

I just grabbed Kurtz Vonnegut's Welcome to the Monkeyhouse and Palm Sunday and it's pretty cool.

I've recently finished reading "Nemesis" by Isaac Asimov. It's one of Asimov's latest works and even though it's not a masterpiece it deserves more

Just started listening to "The Galaxy, and the Ground Within" by Becky Chambers, the fourth and last novel in the Wayfarers series.

House of Leaves. Although I'm struggling because I haven't read a physical book in years and I can't bring it everywhere like I can my Leaf 2.

I'm reading Children of Ruin, the second book of the Children of Time series. I blasted through the first book in less than a week. First time I've read Tchaikovsky and I love it.

Re-reading Ready Player One. I want to forget how bad the sequel is and how they butchered all character development at the beginning of the book.

I tried buying the wool omnibus on his website and couldn’t checkout…I’m gonna try again now, thanks for the reminder

I'm reading The Lady of the Lake by Andrzej Sapkowski. It is the fifth book of The Witcher's series

Children of Memory by Adrian Tchaikovsky

Wild book. 3rd in the series. Not finished yet but the first two were incredible.

The Ark Royal series by Christopher Nuttel.

Nuttel is rare because most series have an issue of everyone becoming overpowered. He has created enemies far stronger and weaker than humanity, he focusses on how an enemy has a tactical edge.

I find Military Sci-Fi a really relaxing read and it's largely written by ex forces, so gives a really interesting insight into how they are structured and think.

I'm re-reading "Scions of Humanity" (AEON 14) while I wait for the next book to be released (Galactic Front). You can start reading books from the AEON 14 for free at Rika Mechanized

I'm currently reading The Rising Storm by Cavan Scott. It's part of the High Republic saga of Star Wars, and I'm really enjoying it so far :D

It was quite a challenge to read a book in English for the first time with Light of the Jedi (the first book of the series). But I feel like I've gotten way better and can now understand more while reading faster.

After this, I'm planning on reading The Prince of Milk by Exurb1a. Which I have wanted to read for a long time.

I'm reading Thrawn: Traitor (Thrawn Canon books #3). Not the greatest series I've ever read by any means but I need a break from the Stormlight Archives Ave my library had no wait on these.

After being a sci-fi nerd for a long time, I want to read through some of the classics that inspire it. So I'm reading The Epic of Gilgamesh, with Lucian's true history next.

Sounds pretentious I know but it's pretty cool seeing where some stuff originated from.

Anyone have any I should add the the list then let me know.

I have a couple things on deck:

• Light from Uncommon Stars - Ryka Aoki - I've seen this one recommended several times, and finally decided to give it a spin.
• 36 Streets - T.R. Napper - A more niche title, but something to hopefully give me a bit of a noir fix.

Terry Pratchett's books on Discworld 📖

Oathbringer by Brandon Sanderson. Book 3 in the Words of Radiance series.

The Fifth science by Exurb1a. It's a collection of short stories in a shared universe. Love it so far. Author has a good youtube channel if you're into that.

I'm reading Nemesis by Isaac Asimov, slow (not much time to read) but steady.

Reading Noor right now. Very enjoyable and it will be quick read.

For We Are Many Bobiverse book 2

Mistborn by Brandon Sanderson. First forray into his books. So far very enjoyable.

I am working my way through Flow My Tears, the Policeman Said by Philip K. Dick. It's not a long book but it's really slow going, it's just so friggin weird that I have to put it down every few pages and just stop to absorb whatever the heck it was I just read. It's neat, as a drug user myself, to read a passage where it seems normal and then just randomly goes off into a 3 page rant about his weird racial ideas, and I just know he took a big fat hit right there writing it, sometime before I was born.
