#2 of 3 in Alice's Adventures in Wonderland
1866 • 245 Readers • 112 pages • 3.9
Why this book?
Of Alice's books, this is my favorite. If Alice Adventure's in Wonderland is one of the best entries for this dreamlike universe, it's Through the Looking-Glass that things get really interesting. I like the passages with the queens and all the metaphor with the chessboard.
#1 of 3 in Alice's Adventures in Wonderland
1864 • 1,061 Readers • 132 pages • 3.9
Why this book?
It is one of the first fairy tale books I have read that has marked me deeply. It is a surreal work that defies the imagination of the reader.
#3 of 3 in Star Wars: The Thrawn Trilogy
1993 • 286 Readers • 496 pages • 4.1
Why this book?
It was the third and final installment of the old Thrawn Trilogy, some of first books in the old Star Wars Expanded Universe, when we still didn’t have the new movies or the endless TV series we have today. It was impactful and knew how to capture with mastery the spirit of the Classical Trilogy.
#2 of 3 in Star Wars: The Thrawn Trilogy
1992 • 326 Readers • 391 pages • 4
#1 of 3 in Star Wars: The Thrawn Trilogy
1991 • 534 Readers • 528 pages • 4.1
Why this book?
It was the first book in the old Star Wars Expanded Universe, when we still didn’t have the new movies or the endless TV series we have today. It was impactful and knew how to capture with mastery the spirit of the Classical Trilogy.
18 Dark Adventure Radio Theatre
1931 • 341 Readers • 268 pages • 3.8
Why this book?
A groundbreaking book that inspired so many other things that came after him, such as the films Alien (1979) and The Thing (1982). Mandatory reading for lovers of Cosmic Horror.
1968 • 2,038 Readers • 223 pages • 3.9
Why this book?
A book that inspired my favorite movie of all time, Blade Runner. The book is much more philosophical than the film, bringing some intriguing and fundamental questions to understand human life, now threatened by the presence of the machine and the cyborg (in this case, replicant).
Why this book?
This is definitely my favorite of all the works of Tolkien and his son, Christopher. In my opinion, it surpasses The Lord of the Rings in many ways.
Why this book?
This is another book that marked me deeply and I reread whenever I can, given its importance not only to the Cyberpunk Movement, but also to the entire authentic science fiction.
Why this book?
It is one of the best scientific fictions of all time. It is a rather thriving critique of the way we perceive and explore nature (and others) in a predatory and dangerous way.
#1-3 of 3 in The Lord of the Rings
1954 • 1,862 Readers • 1,178 pages • 4.5
Why this book?
It is one of the books that most marked my youth and my adult life. Eventually I am always rereading and discovering new nuances of Tolkien’s work.
