I'm a huge sci-fi fan but have run a little bit dry in that genre.

Favorite authors are Arthur C Clarke, Greg Bear, Stephen Baxter, Jerry Pournelle, Larry Niven, Isaac Asimov, Tad Williams (Otherland tetralogy), Brian Aldiss (Helliconia trilogy)

Favorite series:
Otherland, Tad Williams
Rama, Arthur C Clarke + Gentry Lee
A time Odyssey, Arthur C Clarke + Stephen Baxter
Flood/Ark, Stephen Baxter
Foundation series, Isaac Asimov
Ringworld, Larry Niven

Top of my to read list
The long Earth / The long War, Stephen Baxter + Terry Pratchet
The burning mountain, Larry Niven + Jerry Pournelle
Bowl of heaven, Larry Niven + Gregery Benford
The quantum thief, Hannu Rajaniemi
2312, Kim Stanley Robinson


I switched to fantasy for a while
Memory, Sorrow, Thorn, Tad Williams
The wheel of time, Robert Jordan + Brandon Sanderson
The sword of truth, Terry Goodkind
Game of Thrones, George R R Martin

And anything Terry Pratchett is always a good snack.


I'm currently reading The girl who played with fire from Stieg Larsson. Even better then the first book The girl with the dragon tattoo. Very refreshing writing style after all the pages long descriptions that are the norm in fantasy.
