I recommend Alien Invasion and Other Inconveniences.

Any recommendations?

I liked Arthur C Clarke & Isaac Asimov, just about all their works, novels & short stories.

Have you read Buy Jupiter and Other Stories?

Don't remember all the titles, now but I think so, it's 20 odd years ago! Edgar Allen Poe was good & Sir Arthur Conan Doyle did a lot more than Sherlock.

I really recommend it.

Pretty sure I did that one, can't think of specifically sci fi authors, though! Michael Crichton?

Sirens of Titan by Kurt Vonnegut. (Supposedly inspired Hitchhiker's Guide and also the tv show Futurama) Some consider this the greatest book ever written...

How could I forget!? Douglas Adams' Hitch-Hiker's 'trilogy' in 5 parts is great & the Dirk Gently 2 are pretty good, too! Razz

I've yet to read the last two of "The Increasingly Inaccurately Named Hitchhiker's Trilogy". Razz

@Maloy-Ender's Game had me engrossed.
