Description:...

When you hear Sci-Fi, do your normally think of Arthur Conan Doyle, J.R.R. Tolkien, H.G. Wells, Isaac Asimov, Jules Verne, Arthur C. Clarke, Ray Bradbury, or George Orwell? Or do some more recent authors come to mind? Looking for your next sci-fi must-read? We've pulled together some of the favourite science fiction novels. Some are eerily plausible, others are wild trips of the imagination, but all present compelling visions of our possible future. Science fiction quite literally means the literature of change; this includes all the modern day technological and scientific advancements to create an imaginative future. Some of these are classic tales you will surely know, but others are excellent works of science fiction that may have been flying under the radar.
