Classic Sci-Fi Novels

This is a list of the best-selling classic sci-fi books from Book Depository ... From the website: "From the desert wastes of Dune, to the Restaurant at the End of the Universe, we've collected the very best classic science fiction stories for you to enjoy. We have classic sci-fi books depicting alien invasions like The War of the Worlds. We present dystopian regimes as found in the pages of 1984, and mind-bending odysseys with Solaris. We have modern sci-fi classics here too, like The City and the City and Divergent. Utopian and dystopian, serious and funny, fantastical and realistic, these works of classic science fiction literature will make you question all that you know about this world and beyond."
