If you're interested in contemporary, but somewhat overlooked authors, I'd recommend The Freeze-Frame Revolution, and Blindsight by Peter Watts. Both have more than their share of Sci-Fi ideas, and are well-paced, exciting reads. For the first, think I Have no Mouth... written by Italo Calvino and a cell biologist. I also enjoyed his Rifters Trilogy, but it has a bit more attitude than I think it deserves (c.f. William Gibson).

Coincidentally, I just ordered four Thongor of Lemuria novels written by Lin Carter in the style of Conan the Barbarian stories. I'm not expecting great art, but some fun reads.

Olaf Stapledon is a forgotten author? *mind boggles*
I consider Last and First Men, and Odd John, to be essential reading. |

I just reread The Star Kings and Return to The Stars by Edmond Hamilton. If any of you are into just light fun space opera, I recommend them.
