I checked out several new science fiction authors a while back and was gagged by the liberal politics. Several stories started something along the lines, “Two decades after Global Warming destroyed civilization...” Maybe the story was good. I’ll never know because if they start out on some liberal world view I won’t make it to the end of that sentence.

I had rather unmake them. How to make them does not interest me.

For those who haven't seen it, Castalia House Publishing was created by Conservative Sci-Fi Author Vox Day specifically to infuse the genre with Sci-Fi/Fantasy with a conservative perspective. They turn out some pretty good stuff like the old days, and given how bad the leftist stuff gets, will eventually take over Sci-Fi entirely.

While they might not qualify as science fiction per se, since they are mostly set in the present, rather than the future, the distopian novels of Dean Koontz are a guilty pleasure for me.
Although he never says so overtly, readers who are aware that he is Catholic will notice the message laid between the lines.
He plays heavily on themes of free will, and good vs evil.
The protagonist always has the option of walking away and saving himself, but is always compelled by a power greater than himself to risk thankless martyrdom for the sake of others.
