The Machine Stops is a fantastic story written in 1909, which predicts a kind of (pneumatic) internet. Couldn't put it down. Inherit The Stars is another fav of mine but voted for Forster instead.

Most definitely is. I would love to read it again and discuss it (it's probably at least 12-13 years since I read it last).
