Musings on Science Fiction: A Literary History
In this post I offer a quick review of Science Fiction: A Literary History, and dive into two interesting themes: techno-anxiety and reacting to the zeitgeist.
Book Reviews
Book 27: A Case of Conscience
While I didn’t finish A Case of Conscience due to over exposition in its second part, I was fascinated by Father Ramon’s religious arguments in its first part.
Book 26: The Big Time
The Big Time is a book I was excited to read but then ended up putting down. Looks like writing from the ’50s is just not my style.
Books 11-20: A Ranking
My ranking of books 11-20 on my list. The best and worst might not be what you think.
Book 24: The Minority Report
My review of the short story The Minority Report, a must-read sci-fi classic.
Book 22: I Am Legend
Book 22 on My List is a must-read. I Am Legend is the compelling tale of Robert Neville, the last man alive after a vampire/zombie apocalypse.
Book 21: They’d Rather Be Right
My review of They’d Rather be Right, the second Hugo Award Winner for Best Novel.
Book 19: The Demolished Man
The Demolished Man is a fast-paced crime novel with a totally unsympathetic main character. For that reason, it was an exciting read.
