The Complete Robot

Farmer in the Sky by Robert Heinlein [1] The Complete Robot by Isaac Asimov [2] The Wrong Unit [3] wasn't a bad little humorous tale. Pretty much anything by Timothy Zahn (sans Star Wars novelisations) [4] or Robert Sawyer [5] floats my boat. The First Fifteen Lives of Harry August by Claire North [6] Barsk: The Elephants’ Graveyard by Lawrence M. Schoen [7] made me care about sentient elephants. Fuzzy Nation by John Scalzi [8] is very funny. Audiobook version narrated by Wil Wheaton. Of ones already mentioned: The Bobiverse was surprisingly good (including the audiobook version). The Expanse is good. With regards to Dune, there are some like myself who only ever liked the first book in the series. (Also there is a good audiobook version out there.) The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet and sequels are great world building and characters, although the plots seem to meander about with not too much purpose. The Martian is great.

My top three would be: Dune by Frank Herbert (only the first book, dislike the rest of the series) Farmer in the Sky by Robert Heinlein The Crysalids by John Wyndham I've probably read these three books at least twice a decade since the 80s when I was a teenager. The Complete Robot from Isaac Asimov would be a close forth. The Tripod Trilogy by John Christopher would be fifth on the list. Hadn't read since a teenager, but about ten years ago tracked down copies of them (and the prequel) and it was delightful to reread.

The Complete Robot by Issac Azimov. Well actually, I couldn't decide between "I-Robot" and "The rest of the robots", but luckily there's a compendium with them both in.

Complete Robot by Isaac Asimov When frustrated by technology, it's pretty cool to read some things in this collection of short stories and think "We're actually in the future. We just aren't great at making robots walk yet."
