I have been listening in for a few months now and I have failed to hear
anything about science fiction relevant to Traveller.  Doesn't anybody
read fiction?  Of course you do; does anyone have a list of
"recommended readings?"

Well regardless, I'd like to start with one book of short stories that
seems to me so close to Traveller in "format" that it could have
spawned it:

_Star Swarm_ by Brain Aldiss

I am now looking into his (literally) mountain of stories to see if any
others are as applicable (_Star Swarm_ is a collection of previously
published stories).  Another similar Aldiss collection that seems
germane is _Galaxies Like Grains of Sand_.
