- P.D. JamesI, Robot
- Isaac AsimovParable of the Sower
- Octavia ButlerHis Majesty's Dragon (Temeraire, Book 1)
- Naomi NovikRed Mars

- Connie WillisDo Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?
- Philip K. DickChildhood's End
- Arthur C. ClarkeThe Female Man
- Joanna RussThe Other End of Time

I know very little about science fiction (the main reason I joined this challenge) so I can't really comment on your list.
Good luck with this challenge!
To be honest, I don't quite know too much about my pool, I was mostly trying to go by what's available (and sounded interesting) at my local library! Good luck to you too!
it's time for you to start WRITING your own science fiction. hee hee.
