What are some of your favorite science fiction books and why? If you had to pick only a few. As of writing this post my favorites are the following.

  • The Quantum Magician
  • Three Body Problem
  • Children of Time

I tend to like in-depth explanations of the fictional science that exists in-universe as well as a good mystery.

“Creatures of Light and Darkness”, and “Lord of Light” by Roger Zelazny - I love the blending of mythology and science fiction.

“Dune” though it hasn’t aged well in terms of the science of genetics.

“Cyteen” by C.J. Cherryh

“Starship Trooper” and “The Moon is a Harsh Mistress” both are peak Heinlein.
