The Forever War
by Joe Haldeman.
Somehow I’ve never heard of this book, though it is considered a military sci-fi classic. I thought it’d be longer.
A Clash Of Kings
A Clash Of Kings
by George R. R. Martin.
The second book in the greatest fantasy series ever put to paper. Oh yeah, I went there.
Absolution Gap
Absolution Gap
by Alastair Reynolds.
The final book in the Revelation Space series. Carries on the strong momentum of the preceding 3.
Redemption Ark
Redemption Ark
by Alastair Reynolds.

Eifelheim
Eifelheim
by Michael Flynn.
Never heard of it. However, Eco-like science fiction? Sign me up.
Olympos
Olympos
by Dan Simmons.

Ilium
Ilium
by Dan Simmons.
Hyperion was excellent. Here’s hoping this one is too.

by Max Brooks.
