The Stars My Destination (S.F. Masterworks)The Stars My Destination (S.F. Masterworks) by Alfred Bester
Buy new: £2.40 / Used from: £1.99
Bester throws away more creativity in the first ten pages than most authors have in their entire lifetimes. Still exciting and relevant after 50 years
Babel-17Babel-17 by Samuel R. Delany
Buy used from: £4.68
Brilliant realisation of how language forms thought.

Buy new: £9.47 / Used from: £6.14
That this series starts in a hospital bed in USA and ends up in the courts of Chaos is enough for me.
The Eye of the World (Wheel of Time)The Eye of the World (Wheel of Time) by Robert Jordan
Buy new: £5.54 / Used from: £0.01
I know, I know, the detail drives you mad after book eight, and very little happens in the later books, but this is still a classic! Read it and you won't be disapointed.

This book has some great ideas in it.

The chair of bones still gives me the chills!
