10 is hard to go off the top of my head, but, in semi-random
The expanse: loved it so much we have our son the middle name Holden
Dune: always a classic for a reason
Children of Time: find myself dwelling on this
Honor Harrington: the best military sci-fi
Forever War: made me think
Hitchhiker's Guide: always makes me laugh (also like Darkside of the sun, but not listing both)
Hyperion: definitive space opera
The matian: definitive hard scifi
The culture: like the federation in star trek, but better.
Children of time needs more hype. Probably the best science fiction to come out in recent times.
We're going on an adventure!
I didn't think the second book could be on par with the first but it was also fantastic.
Third one wasn't as good, but worth a read. Adrian Tchaikovsky must be the most underhyped sci-fi author writing today, his "The Final Architecture" series is great bit of space opera.
Good to hear. Haven't read the rest of the series, but felt the first was so good it didn't need a follow up
I'm on the second of that. Loved the first, but got dragged off while re-reading SLA
