#BookmarkMonday: The Sci-Fi Edition (1) #RRSciFiMonth

Welcome to Week 40 of #BookmarkMonday, the 2013 Edition. This is the first post of four in celebration of Sci-Fi Week which is hosted by Rinn Reads.

I wondered what the most-loved sci-fi books are and I found this lovely list of popular sc-fi classics over at Goodreads. Here's a selection of four classics matched up with some bookmarks. Check them out after the jump!

I, Robot / Fahrenheit 451 / The Dune Chronicles / The War of the Worlds 

Isaac Asimov seems to be quite a favourite in the list. Here's a cute homage by ChristyMoss to his I, Robot or The Robots of Dawn. {I've not read any of Asimov's work so I'm curious to see related posts and maybe some recommendations on where to start.}

I know this is is an oldie but it's definitely a goodie! I love the idea of a burning book -- yes it's a rather literal bookmark which would go perfectly with Ray Bradbury's, you guessed it, Fahrenheit 451! {This is another that has been on my TBR for years (read: pathetic) and I hope to get cracking on this one in 2014.}

 

I came across these lovely illustrated fan art by Embly on DeviantArt which are a perfect size for bookmarks. They depict characters and quotes from The Dune Chronicles by Frank Herbert. {I don't personally know anyone who has read all the Dune books. Anyone? Should I try this one?}

Flesh and Graphite captures the H.G. Wells classic The War of the Worlds in this lovely watercoloury pencil and ink bookmark. {Now, this one I have heard lots about. I know about the radio show that freaked out everyone because they thought an alien invasion was actually was happening. But then I shied away from the recent movie with Tom Cruise in it (because Tom Cruise is in it). Shall I include in TBR?} 

That's it for this week ... stay tuned for next week's edition!
