Your Guide To Best Sci Fi Books

By Melissa Parker


Other people find it hard to understand how those who love to read, could trade a party for a cup of coffee and a good book or two. But then that is what their idea of a weekend or free time well spent is. And naturally, these people somehow have great dreams of being writers too.

Someone once said that the rules of writing comes down to two simple words. And that is reading and writing. This is what makes a good writer. Before that however, you must develop your love of also having the best free scifi books in your possession or your shelf, to be more specific.

If you are having a hard time picking one, just imagine what it had took writers to seek inspiration in creating them. No, they generally do not run out of ideas but they also get exhausted. People like them are creative by nature but out of so many emerging ones, every generation have their share of a few who would stand out.

Especially when it comes to science fiction, because the genre is somehow hard to grasp sometimes. Only the ones who love a sense of adventure with a tinge of fantasy and dystopia feels can appreciate. Jennifer Lawrence would not have marked her place in Hollywood had it not been for the adaptation of the Hunger Games trilogy by Susan Collins.

Just like you cannot question anyone who cannot stop singing praises for A Handmaids tale when you find it so tragic and not worth your time. You can always discover new ones, because each decade, something sensational and critically acclaimed always comes and lives up to your expectations. It is up to you to look for the resources.

The selection for this genre can be confusing because of how many of them are released in bookstores. It might be easier if you go and read review from reliable magazines like the NY Times. If it was worthy enough of a space there, not just as an ad, but a whole legit review, then it must be good.

You see, readers are subjective. That is why cult series exists. For some reason there are those that are slammed by the critics but nevertheless receives a following from a specific admiring audience with authors like Virginia Andrews. But a V. C Andrews will always be different from a Margaret Atwood.

Try to figure out what good or best means to you. Look at it this way. A Harry Potter novel may not exactly have the same effect to you as the Lord Of The Rings trilogy. Also, do not wait for adaptations in the big screen before you buy a copy of Fahrenheit by Ray Bradbury. A success in the cinemas does not necessarily warrant it to be a good read. Otherwise, prepared to be disappointed.

The ones from yester years may not appeal to you as much as it had taken an impact on a massive audience and critics. Ask for suggestions from those who are well served in this subject. This is because you may be lost in the all the buzz of the contemporary pones which would come out as too mainstream for you.
