Books with a libertarian society

[Dissent]

Fiction or non fiction doesn't matter...would really like to read some...always looking for new stuff to read.

"The Probability Broach" by L. Neil Smith is an absolute must-read!

There's a graphic novel version that you can read for free online, but I'd definitely recommend getting the full version as well.

 

[Dissent]

Sounds really good are any of his other books the same way? What about any other books with a libertarian society?

 

[Pericles]

Almost anythng by Heinlein.

Yeah the Probability Broach is only the first in a series of novels called the North American Confederacy Series. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_American_Confederacy

I haven't read any of the sequels or prequels, but the Probability Broach was frickin' amazing. I'd reread my copy right now if it wasn't lost in storage.

I put the first one on hold. If I like it I will buy the rest because my library system doesn't have them.

 

[BuddyRey]

Awesome! Hope you enjoy it. Let us know what you think!

Snow Crash by Neil Stephenson. This book is hilarious.

Anything by Heinlen, some Neal Stephenson stuff.

The Dispossessed by Ursula K Guin is about some guy who was raised and lives on a socialist/communist planet but is taken to a libertarian type planet and his world is thrown upside down. Or something like that.

Atlas Shrugged does but you will read about half the book before getting to it.

 

[BuddyRey]

Ditto on Atlas Shrugged. That's one book every American should read at least once.

Sharper Security is free for Kindle until Dec 27th. It's a near future thriller/action/mystery novel, but the main setting is post U.S. split into regional parts and most of the action takes place in a libertarian/anarcho-capitalist society. Search Amazon for it.

The Dispossessed by Ursula Le Guin, it represents a stateless society but not really an an cap society. Also, she only attempts to convey how a stateless society would work on a very austere planet (not earth).
