RE: Top Ten List was Re: KV Language

Polsoltechnic League by Poul Anderson.
One of the first SF series I read and, admittedly, it has flavored my SF
view ever since.

I can't remember the specific book (been too long), but I remember
several
space battles that were very interesting.

Here's one that should be added to these lists:

The Centauri Device by M. John Harrison.

Some

books
 suitable for conversion to FT, DS2, or SG2. >>

With no attempt to put in order:

Footfall by Purnelle and Niven
Mote in God's Eye/The Grasping Hand, Niven and Purnelle
The Honor Harrington Stories
The Flandry novels, by Poul Anderson
Hammer's Slammer, David Drake
The Draka novels, by SM Stirling

This is more thanten books, so I'll quit - there are lots more - but I
hate
top ten lists.
