Hi there! I just checked Your website - it's absolutely brillant. I didn't
expect to find articles of so high quality in Danish, so I never bothered to
search for Danish sites on the subjects. I'll spend some hours the next few
days reading all of it.
Regarding fiction books, my favourites are ( in no particular order )
Foundation series , Isaac Asimov ( Story spans *a lot* of time and space. )
Ringworld, Larry Niven ( entertaining read, some nice engineering being
done )
Most of the writings of James P. Hogan, esp. inherit the stars trilogy and
thrice upon a time ( mostly action paced, sometimes hardcore sometimes not,
very good what-if kind of stories )
Time enough for love, Robert A Heinlein ( story of a man who lived 1000+
years from 19something into the future )
Contact, Carl Sagan ( more or less like the movie, but better of course )
Hitchikers Guide to the galaxy series, Douglas Adams ( funniest books i ever
read and re-read )
Above list entirely from memory, so details might be a bit unprecise.
I must admit that i more or less stopped reading fiction about 10 years ago,
so i've missed most of the new stuff, however, I plan on starting to read a
bit fiction again. Above books were among my favourites out of 100+ sci-fi
books i read in a period of 4 years or so. All of them had a lasting
impression.
