One of my kids is excited for the release of Dune: Part Three. We were talking about Dune, how the movies broke up the enormous book, and got on the topic of “sandtrout”.

Robert A. Heinlein invented the Armored Suit for his 1959 military adventure, Starship Troopers.

Modern readers will see the Mobile Infantry’s armored suits through the lens of their own experience with microelectronics, and 60 years of experience and advances in guidance and control software.

I just read Robert A. Heinlein’s Double Star. I had read it in Junior High or High school, sometime in the mid-1970s, and I don’t think I’ve read it since.

Stanislaw Lem wrote Imaginary Magnitude, a highly imaginative book.

A Canticle for Leibowitz is just a great book, one of a kind.
