Maybe not top 3, but Childhood’s End by Arthur C. Clarke has always been at the top of my list.

Whew! Thought about revisiting them but just getting restarted on the “Left Behind” series. Mrs rktman found prequels and sequel. 15 books if i can count. 🙂👍

Yeah, the movie was lacking, but an even greater travesty was the “I Robot” movie, which was an abomination of Isaac Asimov’s book, which was part of his foundation series.
To: KC Burke
Science Fiction is often best read as an adolescent and therefore some of the most memorable and significant works in a readers lifelong list are going to be less than undying adult literature. That does not mean they aren’t great but just when comparing them to other genre you have a disconnect.I've wondered about that before... rereading some of my favorites was oddly disappointing. Thanks for the insight. That said, The Weapon Shops Series by A.E. van Vogt aged better than many...

I'd have put Orwell's 1984 in my list, but I don't think the original poster asked for Democrat training manuals.

“ Out of the Silent Planet trilogy, Brave New World, 1984, John Carter Series, On The Beach, Dune. Those are some of my favorites.”
I wish 1984 was still fiction…

Anything by, Roger Zelazny, Gordon Dickson, and Harry Harrison! These guys are all dead, but they wrote great stuff!!

The Andromeda Strain. One of only two books that I’ve read cover-to-cover without putting it down. The other was The Omen.
