One thing people always get wrong is Correlation does not equal causation. This book takes this to heart and finds the real causes behind everything. A great read for anyone, but a superb read for the inquisitive mind. I am not big into non-fiction, but this is most definitely the kind of non-fiction book I buy.

I liked some of Charlie Kaufman's other movies better. This one is good but Adaptation is a masterpiece. Watch Adaptation twice instead of this once.

This is a great sci-fi book by some people's definition. It offers real problems set in a scientifically different society, they only issue I have with Le Guin's writing is that they usually lack exciting action driven plots. I don't need the entire book to be like that but at least one chapter.

Still a must for any serious sci-fi reader.

This book is always the #1 on any Sci-fi list. It and Ender's Game are the 2 best sci-fi novels written to date. I find that the books that I reread over and over are those that create a universe between front and back cover. Dune is believable and such a great commentary on today's society. I can't believe Frank Herbert was such a visionary to have forseen our wars over oil.

There are 2 kinds of books. Ones you read once, and ones you reread over and over. I found this as a paperback in some library sale and have read my copy to tatters. I must have been through it 5+ times. I tried some of her other stuff, most notable The Madness Season, but I felt that In Conquest Born spoiled me. It is beyond Space Opera, she creates a culture/society/universe that you can really get into.

I only wish I owned a hardcover copy.
