Those are some authors who deserve your attention, sci-fi lovers. I wonder after all these years, if they still love sci-fi or, they ended up hating the genre like S. LEM
Dragon's Egg by Robert L Forward.....best hard SF book ever written....The Seedling Stars by James Bliss.......Long Shot by Vernor Vinge....
The Seedling Stars James Blish not Bliss. But on the subject of James Blish try his series starting with "A Case Of Conscience" "Dr. Mirabilis" "Black Easter" and "The Day after Judgment" . They are Classic Sci-Fi/Dark Fantasy but reading the full series is well worth the time !
I would recommend Childhoods End by Arthur C Clarke.
I`m more into philosophical readings, and many people don`t believe me when i tell them that sci-fi can actually contain a profound and intense meaning.
I`m very picky with my readings, so i like authors who are rarely mentioned, like Stanislaw Lem, Ursula K. Le Guin, R.A. Lafferty, J.G. Ballard...
cool, reminds me a little of the scifi animation 'lightglobal meltdown' that i just saw on youtube
Loved "A Princess of Mars"
Type "hardback princess of mars" in Ebay and you´ll find a couple ranging from $10-15 before shipping
@samspadena Everywhere I look, Sci-fi seems to get grouped together with Fantasy.
Every time I go to a book store and look at the "science fiction" section, it is just full of fantasy with a few crappy sci-fi books. It's such a shame because I realy like the genre.
Second hand book shops are great for finding good sci-fi though.
Needs more reading rainbow DADADA in between takes
This video should have been titled Science Fiction and Fantasy Obsessed🔭🐲
@prehistoric28 i got the kindle edition! cant wait to read it!
Cool new online community called Prehistoric Channel. They will be releasing several sci fi books this year.
Just google Prehistoric Channel
Adoro ficção científica. Pena que os livros mais recentes do gênero não sejam tão interessantes
Great new Sci-Fi book out now since July on Amazon.com entitled "The Perfect Pathogen." Love to get your review of it, especially now within the Ebola news of late. Dave
Dave, what is up with corona virus?
A.C.CLARKE..!!!!???
Neil Gaiman...AGREED..!!!
@TheThreeWeavers you're right, it isn't SF
I hate that bookstores display SF and Fantasy books together; although some books have a mix of both genres they are two very different genres by nature.
I appreciate fantasy but SF has always been my favourite genre.
It is so sad that fantasy books are (in my opinion) most damaged by paperback "fashion"...there are plenty of awesome books that I want to my collection, but there is no hardback version of it...
I didn't hear Frank Herbert mentioned.
The Founder of PREHISTORIC CHANNEL has recently written his first thriller book. Aptly entitled "THE ICE GORILLA" The book is currently being looked at by movie executives in terms of turning it into a movie. The book is trying to sell 1 million copies to help convince the movie industry that this book should be brought to the big screen. Help make this book into a movie by Checking out THE ICE GORILLA @ Amazon.
the new sun :X
So what? It's not like he's some obscure writer no sci-fi fan has heard of. Anyway, great video!
He leido mas de 500 libros de Ciencia Ficcion (Science Fiction).....now I'm retired so I only buy the "used" kind....and even these are not cheap (very affordable) anymore.....plus the field is shrinking fast....and bastardized......

I don't know what it is but ANY women into Sci Fi is hot!! lol.
Totally agree. Sci Fi or just Science.

Can I email you guys some of my sci-fi short stories?
Didn't know Jesus was in the Sci-Fi Club.
Nerds, check out real genre fiction: STEPHEN FUCKIN KING

Who here reads Jules Verne?
I like that Robur character
Creepy.
This is very square. lol.
They clearly dont know the differnce between fantasy and science fiction
fantasy books are not sci-fi
Unbearably irritating music - too loud and totally unnecessary. Love your club though.
