SciFi has never really been, ‘My Thing’ but I did enjoy reading ‘Dune’ back in High School, and all the LOTRs novels, as well. (Oh, Gandalf! Take me away from these IDIOTS I share space with in High School, LOL!)

A few years ago I finally got my Issac Asimov groove on and am now a total fan.

And don’t even get me started on my Ray Bradbury years. SciFi for The Everywo/man.

Really? You don’t think that, ‘The Illustrated Man’ was SciFi? Fight Me! ;)

Currently? I’ve ADORED every book written by Blake Crouch. Treat yourself!

OK. Yeah. I’m now owning that I’m a Geek. ;)

Asimov, Heinlein, Clarke, Bradbury, all my faves..................

There is a bit of a dystopian novel you may enjoy called EARTH ABIDES.

I read it about the time I read the authors you mentioned. It has stuck with me for years. It was on our homeschool reading list for all the kids.

Try some Heinlein.

I think you’d enjoy Friday.

Quite the badass, that girl.

My dad taught English, and there was a good selection of sci-fi in the house. Bradbury may have been as much my mom’s doing.

High school activities included lots of imbibing of spice, and running around in the Oregon dunes.

Have you read Bradbury’s There Will Come Soft Rains? One of my all-time favorite short stories.

I wish I had such a fertile mind as Bradbury, Heinlein, Asimov, and the rest. I have been waiting forever for a competent filmmaker to take on Niven’s Ringworld.

I read “Dune” more than half a century ago. I thought it was dull and plodding so I never bothered with any of the sequels or the movies. Nothing I’ve heard about Herbert’s “masterpiece” since then has changed my mind.
