I've read a lot of Arthur C. Clarke, including every single book in the Rama series (that's quite a long read, I might add).





There's only 4 books in the Rama series :wink:

Unless you count the two written by just Gentry Lee. Arthur C. Clark had nothing to do with them.

Good series, though. One of the first scifi series I ever read, I think.

If you like good long scifi reads, you should definitely check out the Foundation series, by Isaac Asimov. 7 books.




I actually started reading the foundation series... but had to return the book before I was finished with it. I've procrastinated about actually buying the books ever since.

I've never gotten into sci-fi books, but fantasy novels I have read alot of. I did read quite a few Robert Heinlein novels. Stranger in a Strange Land and Time Enough For Love being the best, imo.

When I was younger, Isaac Asimov was my hero. My dad met him at a MENSA meeting and I was always jealous about that. But I never got around to reading anything but the first in the Foundation series!

Acid doesn't give you truths; it builds machines that push the envelope of perception. Whatever revelations came to me then have dissolved like skywriting. All I really know is that those few years saddled me with a faith in the redemptive potential of the imagination which, however flat, stale and unprofitable the world seems to me now, I cannot for the life of me shake.

I just started Asimovs, "The Foundation Trilogy". I borrowed it from a friend who said it was too meaty for him. It is a big beefy 500+ page novel with tiny print.

It may take me a while to get thru it.
