Best (SciFi) books?

u/p2 October 12, 2016, 11:06:44 PM

when reading Animal farm, you shoud at least at the beginning try not to see it too much as a political novel. Think of it more as of a child's story or something

Can recomend it, 7.5/10

>Not SciFi though

u/p2 October 12, 2016, 11:10:26 PM

that's why the topic was calles (SciFi) to begin with

This was actually ment as a general topic about great books, but I wanted te prevent love stories and stuff from flooding in by adding the (SciFi) xD (Except for Wall-e of cause which is just the cing BEST lovestory of all time!!)

I need to get a copy of 1984 at some point. I had totally forgotten about that one. Also I didn't know there were multiple books in the Ender's Game series. That said, if they are more philosophical then maybe I won't like them as much.

1984 and Brave New World were weird books imo
My school has them as required reading next year, that should be fun. I think I've read half of all the high school required reading books already

Whats funny is that Enders game is Sophomore reading. I read the book a year or so before, but my English teacher went into such depth it was like i hadn't read the book at all the first time.

@DJ Omnimaga: Here you go, a brand new copy of George Orwell's 1984: http://www.planetebook.com/ebooks/1984.pdf

Erm @p2 is that book public domain or if it's some copyrighted book sharing site?

All of those books seem to be public domain and/or out of copyright, depending of your country.

boow was written in 1948 (and then alled 1984)... so the copyright should be gone already I think ^^
If it was a pirated book I would have used a rolling RRRrrrrr somewhere in the post, like "Herrrrrrre's your book"

Been a while I've read a good book, and I'm more a fan of fantasy anyway, but I can't wait after "Dans une Galaxie prés de chez vous" (In a galaxy near you), a sci-fi/comedy comic book by Claude Legault, Pierre-Yves Bernard and Julien Paré-Sorel slated for release in 2017 based on the hugely popular TV series and movies of the same name. It's in French of course, but it's gonna be good :3

YES

As I heard, the comic book is indefinitely postponed, but they just started writing the third movie. It's definitely gonna be good.
