The Saucer Series series

Sci-Fi
Project Hail Mary

by Andy Weir

Our pick ★★★★★

A man wakes alone on a spaceship with no memory and slowly realizes he's humanity's last hope against a threat to the sun. Clever problem-solving sci-fi with real heart and an unforgettable friendship.
Sci-Fi
Children of Time

Children of Time #1

by Adrian Tchaikovsky

Our pick ★★★★★

Humanity's last ark ship reaches a terraformed planet and finds it already claimed: by spiders uplifted by a failed experiment. A big-ideas epic told across thousands of years, and more moving than it sounds.
Sci-Fi
Tailored Realities

by Brandon Sanderson

Our pick ★★★★★

A collection of Sanderson's short fiction outside his big Cosmere sagas, mostly science fiction with some fantasy. A great sampler of his ideas in bite-size form.
Sci-Fi
Dark Matter

by Blake Crouch

Our pick ★★★★★

A physicist is abducted on his way home and wakes up in a life that isn't his. A breakneck thriller about the roads not taken, built on a mind-bending sci-fi idea.
