Best Science Fiction Books Ever

List of science fiction books that were memorable and original! A few horror genre are also included. I hope you enjoy the list and find some new ideas for reading. In many cases I read all of the books in a series when I list the first book in a series, but I did not include them all, as in some (many) cases the 2nd and 3rd and so on books were not nearly as good as the original. Enjoy!
