Survey of Science Fiction and Fantasy

Descripció
This is a list for the beginning reader in the science fiction and fantasy genres. It is a representative sample of works from the 18th century through today. My initial list of 50 books, identified by date, provide a grounding in the genre. (Some authors have more than one work on the list, in which case, select one of the choices given.) As a bonus, there are an additional 25 works by women writers, plus 15 extra credit choices to encourage further reading in the genres. Feel free to check off books as they are read. If you couldn't finish a book, thumbs it down.
