by now, i trust you know two things about me.
1. i like nerdy things. this includes science fiction and fantasy.
2. i like lists.
behold, the best of both worlds! NPR put together their top 100 Science Fiction, Fantasy books.
in case you're wondering, the books i'm most interested in checking out are The Lord of the Rings (i know. i obsess about the movies but i haven't read the books. for shame.), The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, The Kingkiller Chronicles (it's waiting patiently on my shelf), and The Once and Future King.
the ones i've read and highly recommend are Ender's Game, A Song of Fire and Ice, Frankenstein, The Gunslinger, Watership Down, and The Space Trilogy.
for what it's worth, the hubs is currently reading The Wheel of Time series and is loving it. he's also going to start A Dance with Dragons soon. yeah, we're both pretty nerdtastic.
thanks to Tor.com for the heads up on this list! and congrats for having 14 titles on the best 100! not too shabby.
I saw this list come out recently but haven't checked it out yet. Thanks for reminding me!
ReplyDeleteAgh- I still haven't read the second Kingkiller book yet!!! Plus, I agree with all of the books you mentioned too! :)
