603311 Looking for Sci Fi suggestions? It's sad, but I am having trouble remembering books that I've liked. The baby must be sucking up my brain cells.

Dune is probably on my list of Good Books. Stick to the first and second books in the series. Stay away from the new ones written by the son.

Neuromancer and Count Zero by William Gibson are also on my list. I likes the short story about Johnny Mneumonic

I'll review my bookshelf and see if anything jumps out at me.
