A Deepness in the Sky

Singularity Sky

Iron Sunrise

Rainbows End

Accelarando

Vacuum Diagrams

Ring

Excession

Childhood's End

The Peace War

Marooned in Realtime

Prey

I really recommend A Fire Upon the Deep and a Deepness in the Sky both by Vernor Vinge.

Hmm, those do appear to be very interesting sci-fi stories.

I've read many similar stories though most of their titles escape me.

Let's see there was the about 14 book series of "The Ship Who Sang"

Most of Isaac Asimov's books were pretty good.

Stephen King's seven-volume Dark Tower series was interesting.

I hear the The Wheel of Time series is worth a read.

Neuromancer, is an okay classic.

Can't remember anymore at the moment. . .

Good sifi books huh... well The Robotech and Battletech books rule, but to get both you have to go used, but you can get the newest battletech books though there called mechwarrior. And if your willing to do a little work I would seriously recommend Micheal A. Stackpole's Blood of Kernskey(sp?) trilogy sorry for the not so sure spelling but I'm at my sisters place watching her kid so I just can't look at the book its self.

I just started reading Neal Stepheson's Snow Crash, and I have to say that Raven is one of the craziest villains in any book I've read in a while. He took out the crew of a Russian nuke sub with a sharpened piece of plate glass! I definitely recommend this book.
