National Sci Fi Day

Every year, January 2nd celebrates all things science fiction, in honor of Isaac Asimov’s birthday.

Now true science fiction is not one of my favorites, though I have tried a few.

I do, however, enjoy a good survivalist story with sci fi elements. My favorite was The Martian by Weir. I read that during a hurricane several years ago, and absolutely loved that book.

Last month, I read Girl In Ice by Erica Ferencik. While I am still pondering over whether or not I loved it, I did appreciate all aspects of the novel. It is a survivalist story set in the arctic. It is a cautionary tale of the dangers humankind presents to nature. It is a reminder about the importance of language and human connection. The sci fi aspects poised excellent situations for the characters to show their true natures.

What is a survivalist/sci fi book you would recommend? If you read science fiction, what book do you recommend I read?
