I got an anthology of of short stories to get a taste for some writers. I’ve gotten foundations by Asimov to start off from that. I don’t think I’ve seen that name yet, but I’ve read through Dune, Andy weirs books, hitchhikers, and 1/3 of the EU of Star Wars, that’s 40ish of 120 or so books. I’ll read 2-3 of those than side quest to some other sci-fi for a break. permalink fedilink source parent [–] max@lemmy.fish 1 point 2 years ago My mother is a fish permalink fedilink source parent
