The 1960s gave us some of the most legendary science fiction ever written… but many incredible novels were completely ignored by the Hugos, the Nebulas, and every other major award. In this episode, Jim dives deep into the data — sales numbers, Goodreads/StoryGraph/Amazon ratings, and critical reviews — to uncover 20 sci-fi gems from the 1960s that were beloved by fans and critics alike, yet received zero recognition from the awards committees.
From lost generation-ship societies to dying Earth jungles, from satirical military adventures to techno-thrillers that changed the genre forever — these are the novels that deserve a place on your bookshelf.
