What is your favorite type of sci-fi? For me since Ive always been interested in life in the universe/space exploration, anything regarding that. I love golden age sci-fi and reading what they thought we would do in space back in the 40s and 50s

I got about 5 books into his other series Mission Earth - but it wasn't a patch on Battlefield Earth so I gave up on it. I remember it was the first series I never completed. What is interesting though about Mission earth is that it could almost be playbook for the WEF and it predicted a few things , the series has some parallels between the events in the books and the current world situation. For example, the series depicts a global pandemic, a nuclear war, a climate crisis, a corrupt media, and a totalitarian regime. It also predicted the rise of cryptocurrencies, social media, and artificial intelligence. But at the same time the writing was shit , it was a barely concealed Dianetics propaganda and very anti-psychiatry. So in summary -Stick with Battlefield Earth ;)
I’ve been wanting to read Dianetics out of pure curiosity since the commercials were always on when I was little
I had a copy when I was younger and it all revolves around the idea that there is something wrong with you that only they can fix. charlatanism at its finest.
