Top 20 geek novels

Following on from the Time top 100 novels comes the Guardian's top 20 geek novels. I do a little better here - I've read fourteen of them, and I have one of them on my bookshelf waiting (Microserfs). Here's the ones I've read:

  • H2G2
  • Nineteen Eighty-Four
  • Brave New World
  • Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?
  • Neuromancer (and almost all William Gibson)
  • I, Robot
  • Foundation (and actually almost all Asimov)
  • The Colour of Magic
  • Snow Crash (and almost all Neal Stephenson)
  • Cryptonomicon
  • Consider Phlebas (and almost all Iain [M] Banks)
  • Stranger in a Strange Land (and almost all Robert Heinlein)
  • The Diamond Age
  • Trouble with Lichen

I've read 11 of your 14, plus two of the others, but not that Neil Gaiman... Amazon wishlist here I come...
