9 essential geek books you must read right now.

[was]

darn..only 3 out of 9

 

[Griego]

I scored seven of nine

You lucky dog. I've always dreamed of scoring 7 of 9.

 

[Stormonu]

1 of 9, but of course, the only one that counts.

Besides, who reads these days?

 

[crazy_cat]

5/9 - and I'm reading another at the moment.

 

[ACreepierFolklaw]

star trek references=double geek points.

i only got 3: the obvious ones of course... but then i'm more counter-culture than geek there is just a 1/3 overlap lol.

 

[Living Legend]

Seriously, no Philip K. Dick, H.P. Lovecraft or Robert E. Howard? Two cyberpunk novels and Tolkien but not "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep" at least?

No one has even heard of the visual information book, meanwhile these guys have inspired or created entire genres. Not sure if I can agree with that list.

 

[Crothian]

I've read 7 of 9. I don't know why the DMG is on the list though unless they are assuming that all geeks play 1e D&D which seems odd.

 

[Mallus]

6 out of 9, making me 2/3 geek, a figure I find about right but my wife would probably dispute.

Also: WTF?! No Dune on the list? Someone's gonna get the gom jabbar right to the neck, yo.

 

[IronWolf]

Six of Nine for me.

 

[mmadsen]

Wait, I'm the first one here to go 9 for 9?

(OK, I didn't get all the way through Gödel, Escher, Bach...)
