Powell’s Essential List: 25 Best Sci-Fi and Fantasy Books of the 21st Century (So Far) - Lemmy.world

I’m not sure when it was written, but I ran across this list of the best science fiction and fantasy books this century, and I resonated with the ones I’ve read, so I thought I’d see what others thought of it. Have you read many of them?

I’ve read or started to read 10 of them. I had a hard time getting into a Master of Djinn and didn’t finish. All Systems Red is fine but not great. I didn’t care for Name of the Wind or Binti. I loved Seveneves, The Fifth Season, and Ancillary Justice though.

I liked All Systems Red fairly well. Pretty quick read, not just because it’s a novella, but fun. Seveneves is great, and I loved American Gods. Windup Girl is really good. I’m not sure why I’ve never read Pattern Recognition; I’ve read a lot of Gibson and usually like his stuff a lot (but I hope someone wrestles the microphone away from him if he ever tries to do another audio book).

All Systems Red is great and so are the rest in the series.

Love the murderbot diaries.
