What’s the Best Piece of Biotech from a Sci-Fi book?
There is some truly fantastic biotech in science fiction novels, some more likely than others, and some more useful. In this case, let's define biotech as any biotechnology that has modified humans, or another species to soup them up to anything more than they were when they were born, for example, a fancy eyeball, extra appendages or replaced appendages, brain implants, a productivity drug etc. Sometimes biotech books fit into a more cyberpunk or “biopunk” scene. So, here's the question, what single piece of biotech from a sci-fi book or novel series would you most like to have? It could be biotech from a human, humanoid, or completely different species. Vote for one of the selections below, or nominate your own preference by adding it into the poll. You can also check out what folks are nominating in the poll on Facebook here.

What’s your pick for the top Space Opera book series of all time?
THE DEBATE IS ON!
Space opera is a sub-genre of science fiction literature that emphasizes space warfare, melodramatic adventure, interplanetary battles, chivalric romance, and risk-taking. Set mainly or entirely in outer space, it usually involves conflict between opponents possessing advanced abilities, futuristic weapons, and other sophisticated technology. The term has no relation to music, but is instead a play on the terms “soap opera” and “horse opera”, the latter of which was coined during the 1930s to indicate clichĂ©d and formulaic Western movies.
This week we want your votes and submissions to determine which Space Opera book series deserve to be considered best of all time.
Next week we'll move the top 10 to a final round to determine their rankings from 10 to 1.
Weigh in on the poll below (feel free to add your own suggestions) and then duke it out in the comments!
