    A lot of science fiction should instead be called science fantasy.

            I highly suggest you give hitchhiker’s guide the time. Not sure if you’ve read any Terry Pratchett, but IMO Douglas Adams is on another level (and Pratchett is pretty good himself). I ended up reading all his books in like two sittings once I started.

              If you haven’t heard the original radio drama, i highly recommend. I actually prefer it to the books now. It’s on archive.org.
