@booktendo: The 2026 winner of the Arthur C. Clarke award is announced THIS WEEK so in the meantime, check out what other books have won that award before. Other huge names in sci-fi have written books that won this award too so it’s a big one to win. Have you read any of these? What’s your thoughts? #BookTok #bookawards #scifi #bookrecs #booktendo
Such a useful post, thanks a lot. I’ve got In Ascension, need to make a start on it.

Venomous Lumpsucker is absolutely brilliant, one my favourite books, but the best sci-fi I’ve ever read has to be the Hyperion Cantos. Utterly unmatched, best thing I’ve ever reac

I’m a huge fan of the Rosewater Trilogy. Especially the audio version. I’ve listened to it several times

Children of time is fantastic, Adrien’s Shadow of the Apt is even better

I don’t think The Underground Railroad is science fiction. Great book though

No genuinely I hated In Ascension. The first two acts are amazing but the book reads like the published demanded the author turn in what they had before they got to writing the third act because it just cuts off and abruptly scrapes together an ending that barely relates to the first two acts at all. It's just pasted on the end so the book has AN ending. Genuinely one of the most disappointing books I've read in years like seriously I can not describe without major spoilers how utterly abruptly and disjointed the final act is. It connects to the rest of the book in basically no way, exists for no reason, and gives a one sentence finale at the end to service the idea that what happened in the first two acts happened at all

As good as the underground railroad is, how is it sci-fi? it's historical fiction

Indie Author: Tyler Thornberry :
My wife and I are new sci-fi authors. Our debut book is called Rise of the Infected. Aliens test viruses on humans that give them superpowers. After a facility explodes, two humans are left alive. With their new freedom they try and save others like themselves. Found family, action and adventure.

Rosewater was so weird and so written by a man. I did not need to hear about the main character getting off constantly. And I hate that we just glaze over the pedophilia in station eleven.
