Imagine I could only choose 5 sci fi books for a brand new sci fi reader -- what would they be?

If you're going to include a Michael Crichton book in a sci-fi list, Sphere is a far better choice IMO.

Sphere is a wonderful choice. I read it as a teenager and it was one of my first non-StarTrek sci fi novels. Picked it up at a truck stop on a road trip and read it in the passenger seat haha
