I’m a science fiction author, who’s traveled to many places due to growing up in a military family. My main mission is to share this in my writing in a sci-fi storyline. Currently living in Hampton Roads, Virginia. I went to college at Liberty University, and high school in Herndon, Virginia. The genre of sci-fi fiction's popularity seemed to stop with authors like George Orwell and Arthur C. Clark. A new generation of readers is arising and wanting more Sci-Fi Novels to peak their interests. Authors like Andy Weir have risen to the forefront and taken on the challenge of giving the world new sci-fi material. These are my choices for the best Sci-fi movies based on books in 2022.
I’m going to be a time traveler per se on my book selection. I’m a big fan of reading a book and then seeing that book as a movie. This was my first book-movie book experience. I read and watched, entertaining to the highest. Now Douglas Adam is from the United Kingdom, and he shares this culture in the style of writing. The reason why I like this book, The storyline was adapted from a radio show first.
Before it became a novel, there are about 100 terms and meanings flying across the book, and it comes together as down to (Earth) no pun intended. There are a total of three platforms: radio, novel, and movie. As a reader who cannot synthesize with Author Tent being saved from Ford Perfect (Alien researcher of space guidebooks), it was the first Star Wars prototype of its time.
First a legendary radio series, then a bestselling book, now a blockbuser movie, the immensely successful Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy needs no introduction. Reissued to coincide with the film's release, this hardback omnibus edition include all five parts of the trilogy, incorporating for the first time, Mostly Harmless, along with a guide to the guide and essential notes on how to leave the planet.
This single hardback edition is indispensable for any would-be galactic traveller and for old and new fans of Douglas Adams, Doctor Who and bestselling science fiction books.
I’m moving along in my time distance to 1990, another one of my favorites in book to movies is Jurassic Park. We saw the start of this movie franchise in 1993. The reason I like Jurassic Park is that the storyline combines the past with the future. It goes back to the beginning of time. Yes, dinosaurs. We as humans are fascinated with dinosaurs, it was first introduced to us in grade school. All of us are in awe, by the stories of these big creatures before our human existence.Mr. Crichton's novels outside of the school was great.
'Crichton's most compulsive novel' Sunday Telegraph 'Crichton's dinosaurs are genuinely frightening' Chicago Sun-Times 'Breathtaking adventure. . . a book that is as hard to put down as it is to forget' Time Out
-------------------------------
The international bestseller that inspired the Jurassic Park film franchise.
On a remote jungle island, genetic engineers have created a dinosaur game park.
An astonishing technique for recovering and cloning dinosaur DNA has been discovered. Now one of mankind's most thrilling fantasies has come true and the first dinosaurs that the Earth has seen in the time of man emerge.
Now we are traveling to current times. The details in Ernest Cline's book impact our current times. Combining the 1980’s with the future. It teaches and entertains at the same time.
The reason I like Ready Player One, Ernest Cline shares Wade's opportunities for Hope to leave the poor area of the stacks not only for Wade (Parzival) but for Art3mins and Aech the whole OASIS to find James Halliday’s keys. And if you really look at the storyline, The Metaverse imagination starts with Ernest Cline's ideas. Along with Avatar (the movie) and Second Life (the game).
SOON TO BE A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE DIRECTED BY STEVEN SPIELBERG
It's the year 2044, and the real world has become an ugly place. We're out of oil. We've wrecked the climate. Famine, poverty, and disease are widespread.
Like most of humanity, Wade Watts escapes this depressing reality by spending his waking hours jacked into the OASIS, a sprawling virtual utopia where you can be anything you want to be, where you can live and play and fall in love on any of ten thousand planets. And like most of humanity, Wade is obsessed by the ultimate lottery ticket that…
I will be honest here I listened to the audiobook then saw the
movie. And I’m a fan of Andy Wier he sports a cappy hat. A Sci-fi trend, I wear
one too. Why I like the novel of Andy Wier, all of us see space travel on TV,
but the small details are left out, the problems, solving problems the novelist
Andy Wier does not leave this out. With Astronaut Mark Watney he really breaks
down and shares each day with a video diary. It was more realistic this way. The NASA team and Watney think of unbelievable ways to survive and return
home from Mars. In real-time NASA, SpaceX, Blue Origin, and
Virgin Galactic.
Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars.
Now, he's sure he'll be the first person to die there.
After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he's alive--and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive.
Chances are, though, he won't have time to starve to death. The damaged machinery, unforgiving environment, or plain-old human error are…
This book is about space exploration and how computers will be a big part of our lives. There are not too many sci-fi novels about monolith and artificial intelligence (AI) together. The novelist Arthur C. Clarke helped Stanley Kubrick with the screenplay which became a movie. All so I like HAL the AI computer on board. The author was way ahead of his time. On trusting HAL (AI) computer insight over human thoughts. In 2022 we're doing this more, trusting with space exploration.
Written when landing on the moon was still a dream, and made into one of the most influential films of all time, 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY remains a classic work of science fiction fifty years after its original publication.
The discovery of a black monolith on the moon leads to a manned expedition deep into the solar system, in the hope of establishing contact with an alien intelligence. Yet long before the crew can reach their destination, the voyage descends into disaster . . .
Brilliant, compulsive and prophetic, Arthur C. Clarke's timeless novel tackles the enduring theme of mankind's…

A fast-paced literary thriller with a strong sci-fi element and loaded with existential questions. Beyond the entertainment value, this book takes a hard look at the perilous world of publishing, which is on a crash course to meet the nascent, no-holds-barred world of AI. Could these worlds co-exist, or will they destroy each other? And more importantly, how will humans tolerate their own creations, the robots, on this planet?
In this, his latest speculative fiction novel, Shane Joseph, returns to the “what if” questions facing humanity that he raised in After the Flood, a book that won him the…
