I just started getting into Science Fiction. All I've read so far are Ender's Game, Starship Troopers, The Forever War, and the Foundation Series. I went to the local Borders to see if I could find one to pick up, but there's so many to choose from. What I'm looking for are books on either space exploration, huge galactic empires, or humanities first contact with aliens. Or just a good SciFi series to read. I just have no idea where to start.

I'm about to finish a British Literature class and the text book has books 1,2,9, and 12 of Paradise Lost. I'd like to read the whole thing but what I liked about the text book was all the footnotes at the bottom of every page explaining references to the bible and such. Anyone know of a copy of Paradise Lost like this? I'd also like to get a bible with footnotes as well if there is one. Despite being raised a Catholic (now agnostic, not that it matters) I know hardly anything about the bible.

jmaze posted:So, nobody has any good suggestions for a good cave story? well there's Subterranean by James Rollins. I read it in middle school or high school and I remember it at least being decent. quote:Beneath the ice at the bottom of the Earth is a magnificent subterranean labyrinth, a place of breathtaking wonders—and terrors beyond imagining. A team of specialists led by archaeologist Ashley Carter has been hand-picked to explore this secret place and to uncover the riches it holds. But they are not the first to venture here—and those they follow did not return. There are mysteries here older than time, and revelations that could change the world. But there are also things that should not be disturbed—and a devastating truth that could doom Ashley and the expedition: they are not alone. http://www.amazon.com/Subterranean-James-Rollins/dp/0061965804/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1277697097&sr=1-1

Blue Moon posted:I've been reading a lot of Issac Asimov lately and am interested in seeing what Arthur C. Clarke is like. Any recommendations for which of Clarke's works to start with besides 2001: A Space Odyssey? I've only read a few of his books but I thought Rendezvous with Rama was really good. Basically a huge alien cylindrical ship comes into the solar system and a crew of humans land on it and start to explore it. By the way anyone know any good sci-fi books about space exploration?
