The list of the top 20 geek novels

I discovered, in a blog Italian, and only 4 months of delay, the Guardian published a list of the 20 best novels geek ...

I adapt myself to the proposed standard and shows the novels I've read in bold, and those beds in VO lingua originale:

3. Brave New World — Aldous Huxley
4. Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? — Philip Dick
   
5. Neuromancer — William Gibson
   
6. Dune — Frank Herbert
7. I, Robot — Isaac Asimov [VO]
   
8. Foundation — Isaac Asimov
   
9. The Colour of Magic — Terry Pratchett
10. Microserfs — Douglas Coupland [VO]
    
11. Snow Crash — Neal Stephenson
12. Watchmen — Alan Moore & Dave Gibbons
13. Cryptonomicon — Neal Stephenson

17. American Gods — Neil Gaiman
18. The Diamond Age — Neal Stephenson
19. The Illuminatus! Trilogy — Robert Shea & Robert Anton Wilson

Mmh... 7 nei primi 10 ma sempre 7 nei primi 20.. chissà se significa qualcosa..
Well .. at least I know what are the next three novels to buy, no? :-)

I continue to recommend, "What a Carve Up by Jonathan Coe ... with the "geek" has nothing to do but it's almost too good beginning to the end ..

PS: I was about to conclude when I correct .. Everywhere I wrote "books" instead of "novels" but I was making a mistake: where is "Escher, Godel and Bach: an eternal Golden Braid" or "Nexus"? In fact, the original article in the Guardian spoke of "geek novels", not "geek books"
