I’m currently reading the Wool omnibus by Hugh Howey. It’s pretty decent I’ve been making very rapid progress as it’s been too hot to sleep here recently now the summer has arrived.
I haven’t seen the Apple show, but maybe I’ll watch it in the future when I’ve finished all the books (I had Shift and Dust as well).

Just started reading Hyperion by Dan Simmons.
Oathbringer by Brandon Sanderson. Book 3 in the Words of Radiance series.
Not science fiction, but I’m loving Carl Sagans “The Demon-Haunted World”. He really was a brilliant dude.
I listened to the 2nd and 3rd books of the Murderbot series on a car ride recently. I had read them before, but it was the first time that he did. I really enjoyed laughing with him.
Reading Noor right now. Very enjoyable and it will be quick read.
Wool was great. And the show was good too. You can basically watch the first season after finishing Wool, if you’d like.
I’m reading He Who Fights With Monsters but I’m going to dig through this thread and find a good scifi novel to read next!
I’m reading The Best Of World SF Vol 2 compilation, edited by Lavie Tidhar. There are some phenomenal short stories in this and the first one, and I really enjoy hearing voices from outside the English-speaking bubble that I usually read
I’m on Tiamats Wake in the Expanse series, love it
I’m Listening currently because it’s convenient at work but, Finishing the Bobiverse for my 3rd go around
I’m currently reading Leviathan Wakes by James S. A. Corey, which is the first book of the Expanse series. I haven’t watched the TV series, since I wanted to dive into the books without previous knowledge.
Working my way through some Hugo winners past— reading A Canticle for Liebowitz by Walter M Miller.
Just ended with ‘Children of Time’ by Adrian Tchaikovsky and will now start ‘Children of Ruin’ (the second in the series). I liked it a lot,… the gist of it:
- Humans terraform planets
- Humans want ‘crispr’ intelligent apes
- Humans kill each other
- Crispr can’t find apes,… uses spiders instead
- Other Humans come eons later and find intelligent spiders
The story is told through the eyes of the spiders and the surviving humans and how they try to communicate, think in different terms, fight for the last habitable planet,…
We’re going on an adventure!
The second one was also “funny”… My wife just finished the third…
I’m re-reading Broken Angels (the sequel to Altered Carbon) by Richard Morgan. Of the three books in the trilogy, this is the one I liked the most.
I’ve got River Of Pain by Christopher Golden on pause. It’s an Aliens-prequel about the colony set up on the planet where the Nostromo crew picked up the alien. I haven’t read it before, but I’m pretty sure I know how it ends.
