The 15 Best Sci-Fi Books I've Ever Read [Updated]

This is a list of my 15 favorite science fiction books, as of September 2022. My selection criteria were a mishmash of all the variables you might imagine. There is no strict litmus or set of standards I applied. Timestamps are below for those who'd like the quick version. If you would like to see in-depth reviews of single books, where I am able to share my thoughts in greater detail and care less about YouTube content restrictions, please visit my Patreon. $5 gets you everything.   / bookpilled   Join my Discord server:   / discord   My other YouTube channel, about reselling things online:    / thriftalife   00:00 Dune by Frank Herbert 01:19 The Mote in God's Eye by Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle 02:48 The Stars My Destination / Tiger!
