The Forever War by Joe Haldeman

Prelude to Foundation by Isaac Asimov
Foundation by Isaac Asimov
Through a Scanner Darkly (graphic novel version) by Philip K Dick 

Every now and then I try and become more well-versed in scifi.  'My' genre is definitely scifi, but I am constantly aware of how pitifully few of the classics I have read, and how poorly versed I am in the genre.  (Sure I can help a newbie get started, but I haven't read anything by many of the 'big great' authors: Dick, Asimov, Clark, etc) So from time to time I 'work' on broadening the breadth of my scifi literacy.  This is definitely in part a rebound from the Card kick!

Oh and if you were wondering, The Forever War was great!  I read it in about 24 hours.  At first I thought I wouldn't like it, but I really got sucked in.  I'd suggest it for people who like: scifi, military fiction, futuristic dystopia.  Those new to scifi might have a hard time though.  

Really enjoyed the Foundation books.  Just ordered some more from the library.  Only for real scifi lovers though.  (But scifi fans will love it!) 

Through a Scanner Darkly was weird and trippy and reminded me of A Clockwork Orange a little.  Has scifi undertones but could probably be mainstream enough for a general fiction reader.  I didn't realize that I'd ordered the graphic novel version.  I wonder if the non-graphic novel version is different/better/worse?  Not sure I'd have the patience for it though.
