Hmm, no I haven't read any of his books.

Has anyone here ever read anything by Ray Bradbury? He recently died, and so I got interested in him. I have Fahrenheit 451 and the martian chronicles. Does anyone know if these books are any good? |

Yes. I have read 451 and it is very good. I have not yet read The Martian Chronicles but I do know it is a collection of short stories that tie together. I think he wrote them for a magazine. I also have The Illustrated Man and Dandelion Wine on my to read list and on my shelf. |

Fahrenheit 451 should be required reading for everyone. It's the classic distopian story about a society that burns books instead of reading them, not by government mandate, but because they gave them up freely. A masterpiece. |

I just finished The martian chronicles, I liked it fairly well. It was like a whole book of twilight zone episodes. (I'm starting Fahrenheit 451 now.) |

Yep, but even more so since my current project is a dystopian Sci-Fi novel.

I've read Farenheit 451 and thought it was awesome. Very well written - a magnificent accomplishment. I have had the Martian Chronicles for awhile, but haven't read it yet. |
