Re: Fantasy/sci-fi book recommendation?
(Anonymous) 2014-04-15 01:21 am (UTC)(link)China Mieville - specifically The City and The City, which combines fantasy and crime fiction (less high fantasy but imo more accessible), and Perdido Street Station, which is amazing but hard to digest sometimes.
Sharon Shinn - the Samaria series, but mainly Archangel and Jovah's Angel. Much lighter fare, though not entirely light-hearted.
Sci-Fi:
Philip Jose Farmer - To Your Scattered Bodies Go (and the rest of the Riverworld series). After dying, all the people who ever lived on Earth before it was destroyed by a group of aliens in 1985 (including one of the aliens) wake up on the Riverworld, an artificial world encircled by a single long river. They're all young again, they each have a renewable source of food, and every time they die they are resurrected again. An old series, and it does read like it, so it is very much not for everyone.
Hannu Rajaniemi - The Quantum Thief. A thief is sprung from prison in the far future in order to steal something for his rescuer's employers. First he has to recover his memory, which he hid from even himself. (Book one of an unfinished trilogy)
Frank Herbert - Dune. One of my favourite books. Betrayal, politics, destiny, addiction.
Re: Fantasy/sci-fi book recommendation?
Dune is one of my all time faves. Read it so many times. How did I forget that on my list?
