I recently got A Canticle for Leibowitz by Walter M. Miller Jr.(no kindle version). I have been reading some steampunk of late but I have found that there is a lack of "Science" science fiction.

When I go to the library and look for new SciFi I see a plethora of fantasy (which I do like) but when I look for SciFi I want SciFi. So... suggestions? comments?

if you liked Cryptonomicon, read the Baroque trilogy. it is AMAZING

They are all excellent pieces of science fiction (Neuromancer is the *other* reason I decided I wanted to write, A Wrinkle in Time being the first). His second trilogy, the Bridge series is also good. They are Virtual Light, Idoru and All Tomorrow's Parties.

WG's Bigend books are good too: Pattern Recognition, Spook Country, and Zero History

Oh! And Verner Vinge's Rainbow's End!
