Top 10 Most Anticipated Sci Fi Books for 2025

[@NothingAvailable89]

Space Brooms sounds pretty cool, should be a fun little read, thank you for the heads up! Good videos, much respect.

[@stardustonboots1945]

"all the water in the world" sounds like one of those cozy post-apocalyptic books. The idea of ​​having your own backyard garden in central park sounds appealing)))

[@namas1969]

Mine are: Richard Swan - Grave Empire - Book One of The Great Silence trilogy; James Islington -The Strength of the Few - Book Two of Hierarchy series ; Pierce Brown - Red God - Book 7 of Red Rising Saga (with some luck, maybe it will be released in 2025. They're more fantasy than sci-fi, but...

[@TheShadesofOrange]

Swan and Islington are two of my most anticipated fantasy books for next year

[@dalejones4322]

I love when you give sci-fi some love. Space brooms sounds like a fun and funny book. Thanks for the great video

[@TheShadesofOrange]

I'm glad you share my love for Sci Fi

[@amberdevan9236]

These sound great! Thank you for the heads-up on upcoming sci-fi books! I enjoy your take on things!

[@mohammedarmanulhaq]

I always look out for ur channel whenever I need to know about anticipated future sci-fi releases!

[@TuftyMcTavish]

As you were describing the ridiculous sounding premise for the Scalzi, I was basically predicting and uttering the exact same thing as yourself about his older work and the silly-leaning modern stuff. I’ve actually given up reading him these days. I’ve got Powell’s “Future’s Edge” on my future preorder list though! February, I think… cover reveal happened earlier today (15th).

[@filmtrek8814]

Space brooms sounds like a fun read and the cover looks cool. Thanks for your wonderful recommendations! 😄🚀

[@Juntaine]

So nice to have some sci fi recommendations! I'm participating in a reading challenge that I want to fill up with SF. One of the prompts is reading a new release the month it comes out, so now I know what to fill those slots in with. Love your channel! 🛸👽🌃

[@TheShadesofOrange]

Oh perfect

[@Mermelephant]

I’ve never been the first view of a video! You posted 3 min ago! Nuts. Very cool. I’ve been bingeing your videos. I love how analytical you are, it really makes me trust your opinion more than if you just were like “10/10 I love it bc I do!” Hahaha

[@TheShadesofOrange]

Why thanks

[@hollylynnreads]

Have you read The Light Pirate? I really enjoyed that one and All the Water in the World sounds like it has similar vibes so will definitely be checking that one out next year, thanks for putting it on my radar :)

[@TheShadesofOrange]

I've heard it was good but haven't read it

[@bakpakgoblin]

I love how the ending music for your 🚀🪐🌠 videos and your 🎃🔪🩸 videos are different!

[@LivingDeadEnby]

The Okorafor and the Fracassi book sounds intriguing 🚀

[@TheShadesofOrange]

Agreed

[@isaaczurich9272]

For everyone intrigued by All the Water in the World, I highly recommend checking out Arboreality by Rebecca Campbell. At the time of writing, it's the most recent recipient of the Ursula K. Le Guin Prize.

[@greywaren621]

Added to TBR! Thanks!

[@TheShadesofOrange]

Added to GR thanks

[@sarafairchild2588]

The only 2025 books that I have down so far are The Fourth Consort by Edward Ashton (I love aliens) and the third in the novella series Chaotic Orbits by Beth Revis. It is so fun so far. Thanks so much for your sci fi reads and reviews!!

[@TheShadesofOrange]

Love reading about your anticipated releases

[@sarafairchild2588]

⁠@@TheShadesofOrange- Another I found that is exciting for 2025 is In The Blink of an Eye by Jo Callaghan-

[@Deosis]

I do like these videos as I try to balance my reading between classics (I am reading mostly older books atm) and newer releases (newest has been the Children of series by Tchaikovsky and Eversion by Reynolds I believe). From this batch the most interesting to me would be the time travel book. But none really stood out to me that much, my current TBR is way more interesting :D

[@TheShadesofOrange]

Sometimes it can be validating to look at the new releases and still prioritize your backlist

[@thefuzzybookdragon]

Added 'Death of the Author' to my reading list, thanks!

[@TheShadesofOrange]

I hope we both enjoy it

[@candicebarbata5028]

I’m very interested in Philip Fracassi Sci Fi book! Can’t wait to hear your thoughts on these 2025 releases!🚀✨

[@TheShadesofOrange]

Same!

[@PageTurnersWithKatja]

Love the sound of Space Brooms. I enjoy Scalzi he's still an auto-read for me Scales sounds a bit like some of the peeps in korean movie Badland Hunters

[@book_hoarder_bose]

Space Broom sounds really fun

[@josephiyeke8946]

Looking forward to Hammajang Luck!

[@toweringtbr]

Space Brooms sounds fun

[@stardustonboots1945]

A ball of cheese instead of the moon is not necessarily such a stupid idea. It could have been done by an alien civilization or a computer simulation we live in to test our psychology. From this point of view, it is even more interesting to see how all these diametrically opposed characters will react to such absurdity.

[@mike6446]

banana pants? I love it. My word of the day.

[@TheShadesofOrange]

I know, such a refined descriptor

[@NicoleFernandez92]

Just wondered if there going to make a Hollow Cocoon book (it's a great/mystery game)

[@paperback_cat]

I'm hopeful the cover finally being available means this release date for the Martian Conspiracy will be true too! 🚀

[@TheShadesofOrange]

🤞🤞

[@suthakharponnambalam9836]

The premise of Scales is the craziest I've ever heard lol.

[@TheShadesofOrange]

Yeah 😄

[@EricBowersTrekkie]

I agree that John Scalzi's last several books seem a bit silly. But I will always read his latest, just in case, because I love the Old Man's War books so much. 🚀🚀🚀🚀👾👾👾👾

[@TheShadesofOrange]

Yeah same

[@khomo12]

Some of these sound interesting!👍👍👍🚀📚🤖🐲

[@krzysamm7095]

Scales like it will be interesting.

Hurrah, a new Nnedi book! I didn't know Nnedi's pronouns were they/them.

[@TheShadesofOrange]

I think she identifies as female. I'm talking off the fly so I couldn't remember in that moment

[@lisagulick4144]

@@TheShadesofOrange Oh, okay. Because I just looked at one of her books, and the author bio says where "she" lives. Now I see that you were using "they" like "xe" (as in the "Wayfarers" series).
