Well, since James mentioned my name in his message. I guess I should
at least post something.
Here are some of the sci-fi books I thought it would be interesting
to Traveller GMs.
Ringworld by Larry Niven,
Berserker series by fred Saberhagen,
any book by Pohl Frederick,
Venus Prime by Paul Presus,
You can find lots of interesting ideas from books. The hard part is
to improvise it instead of just copy it directly. In fact, some of the
Cyberpunk stuff I'm reading are great help as far as the implementaion of
bionics in my adventures.
