I read some free kindle books back in the day, that probably only a few thousand other people have read, so very plausibly no one on Lemmy has ready.

So, what books have you enjoyed that you feel confident no one else on Lemmy has read?

    A lot of old, norwegian scifi fan on Lemmy? No? In that case I’m sure my favorite scifi book-series from my youth, Starship Alexandria, is very much unread by anyone here. I cant even find copies of it at libraries anymore. Yeah, I know thats a unfair suggestion since none of you can pick it up and read it anywhere anyway. The author had a bit of Isaac Asimov feeling to how he wrote scifi. So that series was my launch-point to more scifi books.

    But for a more modern suggestion, anyone read A Cyberpunk Saga by Matthew A. Goodwin? It’s not great books but not bad either. His writing improves with each book, imho. And it has a well-written ending. It isnt a forever continious or unfinished series. I never heard anyone recommend it. People just recommend the same top few cyberpunk genre books, like Neuromancer, Snow Crash, Wind-up Girl, etc. Never anything smaller. Was mostly because of Cyberpunk 2077 I found that book: I wanted something not too depressing but still cyberpunk where the focus was on a team and not a single protagonist, so I downloaded a cyberpunk short-story collection where his story caught my interest.
