An Aspiring Sci-Fi Geek's Massive TBR List - Page 2

A list combining science fiction classics I still need to read and some old-school ones that are more obscure (is there anything better than an ancient worn-out sci-fi paperback found in a used bookstore?) as well as new science fiction both popular and relatively unknown (many found on this very site!) This list is very specific to me but I hope you can find some new books to read if you are also an aspiring sci-fi geek!
Books are arranged alphabetically by author (as you can tell I'm already a huge Asimov fan) and I put anthologies as well as all the short stories in the Forward Collection at the very end.
