Old Books, New Readers discussion

Hi Everyone,

Here is a call for nominations for the March 2025 Book of the Month. The theme is Technology; Novels where a new technology impacts the story.


Here is a list of the previous books we have read in this group to make sure your nomination has not been a previous Book of the Month:

Rules
1. One nomination per person.
2. Poll will be set up when we reach 6 valid nominations.
3. Nominations should have been first published earlier than March 1975.
4. It would be great if you could share why you want to read this book.
5. To get a wider variety of selections, the nominations may be limited to one book per author.

Cheers,
Ian

I nominate I, Robot.

I nominate The Man in the High Castle feels rather timely in this current climate.

To Hell and Back by Audie Murphy. A World War II classic.

How about 2001: A Space Odyssey Everyone knows about this one, I think.

Hi All,

There are 4 nominations so far:
1. I, Robot by Isaac Asimov
2. The Man in the High Castle by Philip K. Dick
3. To Hell and Back by Audie Murphy
4. 2001: A Space Odyssey by Arthur C. Clarke

We just need two more nominations.

Cheers,
Ian

I can’t think of any other technology themed that aren’t on the list.

I think Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? By
Philip K. Dick will fit the category as it is a science fiction. Have we already read it?
