So it's summer time and I'm waiting for job thing to come through, leaving me too much time to twiddle my thumbs.

Now I'm a sci fi junkie, but lately, my collections have been getting pretty stale, mostly from same authors plus didn't have much time to read.

I'm looking for some recommendations. Could be any kind of sci fi, though I enjoy space opera type the most.

Cheers

hahaha

In cold blood is a true story about a 1959 murder in Kansas. A family of 4 was shutgunned from close range. So this details the murder and the aftermath.


Browns Chicken Massacre - a true story abtou a mass murder (7ppl) which occurred at a Brown's Chicken restaurant in Illanois, just out side of chicago in 1993. So just like the other one this details the aftermath.

No fiction please.

Meh. Murder stories don't interest me really.

I get enough of that reading history texts

Science Fiction, eh?

I always loved the Crystal Singer series by Anne McCaffrey - kinda space opery. It's a classic series but a good one. Her Freedom's Landing series is also good, btw.

I just finished reading the new Jim Butcher novel for his Harry Dresden series. Downright some of the best, funniest yet still adventursome writing I've read in awhile - they're perfect summer reads and heck, there are 8 of them so it keeps you occupied.

More classic sci-fi would be Tad Williams' Otherland series. Peoeple are transported inside cyberspace - it's trippy as heck but Williams is a great storyteller.

That's all I got - I read too much to remember them all.
