Bungie Community Science Fiction Reading List

I want you to help make this a comprehensive list of science fiction novels. I hope that this will serve as a starting point for those who are just entering the genre or as a boost for those who are interested in expanding their Sci-fi library.

  • [url]http://www.amazon.com/Jurassic-Park-A-Novel-ebook/dp/B007UH4D3G[/url] Jurassic Park by Michael Crichton Really, anything by Michael Crichton should be on any sci fi reader's list. Unlike most sci fi which deals with distant futures with space travel, his books deal with issues that are in our world today. 30 years ago when he wrote Jurassic Park, cloning was being discussed as whether it was possible. Now in today's world, cloning extinct animals is becoming closer and closer (like the Mammoth has been mentioned) along with the morals of said cloned animals (like with cloned meat and stuff). All of his books are very relevant in today's world with their messages and themes, and their stories/characters are pretty awesome too
