Summer is my favorite time to do any reading so I can sit out side in the warm weather and relax with a beer or eight. Now that’s it’s getting that time of year again, and I’m looking to put together a rough reading list. Last summer is was mostly political book, and the year before that it was science(mostly physics). This year I was to change pace a little bit and read some scifi. While I consider myself to be a big scifi fan when it comes to movies and TV, I actually haven’t done much reading in the genre. Most of my reading has been various Star Trek and Star Wars novels and half of Dune, and of course the works of Douglas Adams several times might be able to technically be counted(maybe I should count my book on string theory as scifi too?).

Aside from finishing Dune, what would the suggestions of the internet? I’m pretty open, so may classics that have held up well and some new stuff too. The only things I would rather avoid are books in the Star Trek, Star Wars, and other similar “big” universes. Any suggestions would be appreciate, just leave me a comment or drop me and e-mail.
