Hello.
I’m reading the second book in the Backyard Starship series. I find the books entertaining, but in my opinion, they lack depth.
I’m looking for some better sci-fi literature, so feel free to give me some recommendations.
Edit: Thank you all for the recommendations. I’ve added them to my reading list and I’m looking forward to reading them!
Not an answer to your question, but I came across this lemmy instance focused on literature. Seems they’re still new, so not many communities yet, but you might have some luck there too!
https://literature.cafe - seems !fiction@literature.cafe is the most relevant community, but they really should open up a separate sci-fi community!
Now onto an answer: I’m really into the soft sci-fi of the Strugatsky brothers. Definitely Maybe is such a great read. As for more popular works, I did enjoy Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir a few months ago.
