I couldn't find Ender's Game in the library so I bought it over the weekend and look forward to reading it after seeing it recommended here. I've just finished Infected by Scott Sigler which I enjoyed. It reads somewhat similar to an episode of Fringe or the X files.

Try the Conqueror Trilogy (Conqueror's Pride, Conqueror's Heritage, Conqueror's Legacy) by Timothy Zahn.

The best Sci-Fi trilogy that should be a movie series, but will never be made into one.

I just finished "Time Travelers Never Die" by Jack McDevitt, and it was probably the hardest book to put down in a long time. No idea what's coming next, I'll have to check what's on the featured selection list at SFBC LOL

I just did a search of this forum for "Eifelheim", with no results. Has noone else read this?

I'm currently reading 2001 A Space Odyssey and I absolutely love it. I've found it fascinating to discover the differences between the book and the movie. Some are subtle and some are a bit major.
