The Best Science Fiction Books (According to Reddit) Recently, someone asked Reddit for a list of the best science fiction books of all time. Being a fan of sci-fi, and wanting to expand my own reading list, I thought it would be helpful to tally the results and preserve them here for future reference. I've also included selected quotes from the comments, as well as my own notes on the books I've already read. PS: All book images in this post are copyright Amazon, and were retrieved using my Big Book Search Engine.

So, without further ado, here are the Greatest Sci-Fi Books of All Time, ordered by upvote count: Dune Frank Herbert - 1965 "There's a reason it's the global top selling science fiction book of all time. " - NibblyPig If you have a chance, track down the excellent full cast audiobook (unabridged!) The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy Douglas Adams - 1979 "I really love the cool combination of humor, philosophy, and sheer nuttiness of the entire series.

" - Scarbrow Ender's Game Orson Scott Card - 1985 Foundation Trilogy Isaac Asimov - 1942. Textfromdog.tumblr.com/page/2. Texts From Bennett. Why pocohantas=avatar. The 25 Comic Books You Need To Read Before You Die. With all of the comic book properties invading TV and movies over the last decade, it’s easy to want to jump headfirst into the medium and read everything within grabbing distance.

There's a problem, though: Since the industry pumps out dozens of new issues per week, and thousands per year, it’s almost impossible for new fans to know where to begin. Rarely can you go to a comic book store and pick up a single issue of Batman or The Avengers without having to know what came before it in order to actually understand what’s going on presently. But don’t worry, we’re here to help. There's no reason why collecting comics should seem more like a second job than an enriching hobby. That’s why we've compiled a list of the absolute best examples of the medium from over the years, spanning every genre available. This isn’t a “Best Comics of All Time” list—it’s more of a primer course for where to start. Written by Jason Serafino (@serafinoj1)
