Top 100 Science Fiction Books

Found this website via Digg.com. It ranks the 100 top science fiction books which they say ' you just have to read'. I have only just gotten into the whole SF genre in the last few years, and can't really count that many that i have read in the list. But being a huge fan of Frank Herbert, I'm glad to see Dune rank quite high. Some of the other authors I have read are also on the list (although lower) like CJ Cherryh, Jules Vernes, Ursula LeGuinn and John Wyndham.

Obviously, favourites like Arthur C. Clarke and Asimov would top the list.

I've listed the top 10 here, for the full list you can check out the site.
