I am looking for scifi novels based on real scientific concepts, but with easy to follow plots and characters.

My English level is proficient in a professional setting, and I have no problem reading academic, medical or scientific articles in English.

I love watching documentaries on BBC, but I sometimes struggle watching dramas and sitcoms without subtitles.

I am mainly trying to find audio books that I can listen to while driving. I am half way through listening to Carl Sagan’s Contact on audio, it is great and not too difficult because I’ve already watched the movie many times.

    Anything by Andy Weir, he’s basically juvenile fiction with really good ideas and research

      Yeah he’s a very light read and a good intro to sci-fi. Although I personally didn’t start with light reads.
