Christian Cameron’s latest book in his Long War series just came out, so I’m doing a reread of the previous books to get up to speed. Currently on “Rage of Ares”, which will cover the Battle of Plataea. Also, just finished L.E.Modesitt Jr’s latest book, Contrarian, and as always, I wish the next one is already out. And one can never read Modesitt’s novels without getting hungry…no of any other fantasy author who goes into detail what’s in each meal. He obviously cooks too, and I wonder if he would release recipes of what he describes.
I borrowed a few Philip K Dick ebooks from the library. Just finished Man in the High Castle, gonna read A Scanner Darkly next.
I like it because I’m into some aspects of 60s Sci fi but Heinlein and Herbert aren’t as fun to me for some reason. Dick seems like it’s an easier read, even if the themes make you think.
Ooh I have read Man in the High Castle & A Scanner Darkly!
Have you read Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep (Blade Runner’s OG)? For some weirder stuff of his, there’s Three Stigmata of Edward Palmer.
I’d also recommend Arthur C Clarke’s Oddyssey series.
I’d recommend you Isaac Asimov’s Foundation series, but it might be heavy for you (considering you don’t like Dune). IRobot is a lighter read. For the more obscure stuff: The End of Eternity.
Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep was the first of his novels I read! I’ve heard a lot about the foundation series and might check it out. And oddly enough I’ve never read any Atthur C Clarke. Lemme see what my library has! Thanks for the recs.
