2001? A wrinkle in time? I, Robot?
What are the best science for books in your opinion?
Nope, not just you. 😄
Foundation trio
Stranger in a Strange Land
Mote in Gods Eye
Ender’s Game, the book is my favorite
Edgar Rice Burroughs’ John Carter books...
Jules Verne’s writings would be up there.
But then, the next book:
Robots and Empire is part of Asimov's consolidation of his three major series of science fiction stories and novels into a single future history: his Robot series, his Galactic Empire series and his Foundation series. (Asimov also carried out this unification in Foundation's Edge and its sequel.)But again If you have to describe the total works of Asimov's future history, you have to consider Heinlein's major works.
“Eat!”
I have taken a stab at writing the best Sci Fi book. Been working on it 32 years. It is unique, for sure. Anyone want to do a free read, I need readers. Just mail me. It’s online.
Out of the Silent Planet trilogy, Brave New World, 1984, John Carter Series, On The Beach, Dune. Those are some of my favorites.
I enjoyed the works of Michael Crichton, although they tend to stray into the techno-thriller genre.
Butt Seriesly, i enjoyed The Marian Chronicles by Burrows....but that was in my preteen years.
Immortality, Inc. By Robert Sheckley
Harrison Bergeron By Kurt Vonnegut
Can’t think of a third right now.
I’m glad the book was good because the movie wasn’t

There you go!
At least you can spell him right.
interesting...
In no particular order:
The moon is a harsh mistress; Robert A. Heinlein
Snowcrash; Neil Stephenson
Rainbows End; Vernor Vinge
The Mote in God’s Eye may be the best first contact novel ever written. And any of the Niven & Pournelle collaborations are worth reading.
My votes for best sci-fi books have already been listed (God bless you guys), so here are some that I think are also awesome:
The Moon is a Harsh Mistress - Robert Heinlein
The Forever War - Joe Haldeman
Rendevous with Rama - Arther C Clark
Dune. Foundation. Ringworld.
