Do you read science fiction iyc?
>>220016028No, with the exception of HG Well
Asimov is overrated. William Gibson is the ultimate sci fi writer.
>>220016028no i only read non fiction books for some reason
Egan, Wolfe, Watts, Clarke, Lem.
>>220016028Yes, it's the main sort of fiction I read.
>>220017148I did not care much for Gibson desu senpai
>>220020507You're missing some of the best sci fi stories ever written.
>>220016028I don't read books lame ass nigga I imagine my own stories in my mind. I even produce and film entire movies in my mind. I got a story called TURNER. It starts Mel Gibson and it's about him in the distant future where the remains of the country are inhabited by an amoral brown people known as "Chichans" who rule through a crude feudal form of governance known as the "Run red." He's from an alternate reality and ended up in this alternative earth through a hyperflux, sort of like Planet of The Apes except the apes are mexican. Also, he has force powers due to the hyperflux. He's sort of a Jedi cowboy trying to get the hell out of there. Woke critics called it racist, but on /tv/ we call it /ourfilm/.
>>220016028Not my favourite type of literature.But I enjoyed Dune very much
>>220016028The original cover art is kino but I really disliked the ending to Foundation. The whole bit about Gaia and Galaxia was so lame
>>220016028I'm a big fan of Lem especially his silly books like The Star Diaries. Memoirs found in a bathtub felt like reading schizophrenia.
asimov is goodprelude and forward are my favorite actually
>>220016028No. Back in my reading days I mainly enjoyed books ultra focused in reality, so Tolstoy, Dostoevski, Gogol, Turgenev... Russian literature in general.
>>220022923Edge was the comfiest one for me, oddly enough
>>220016028I live in a science fiction dystopia already.
>>220016028yeah ive been reading some star trek books lately theres some crazy crossover stories
>>220022514Early scifi really liked the idea of "humans exploring the universe". Meanwhile most dystopian scifi these days is about how we'll be frying our brains with dopamine trying to experience everything possible in a simulation.
>>220022514Asimov paperback covers have always been hit or miss but these are by far the coolest and most evocative. The editions I have are older and much quainter by comparison.
