Book List
Our book list is drawn primarily from the Classics of Science Fiction list compiled by James Wallace Harris and Anthony Bernardo. The compilers have taken twenty-eight reasonably authoritative lists of classic science fiction, and listed those titles that appear most frequently. This seems like a good starting point for a book group focused on classic science fiction, and so our list is derived from that one, though we've added to it according to our rules.
The original list is available ordered by: ranking, title, author, year.
If you notice any errors, please report them.
