If you have to recommend me *ONE* book (strictly from sci-fi/thriller/mystery), what would it be?!

if the same question is posed to me, I would hands down just say ‘Deception Point – Dan Brown’.
I dont usually stick with an author or the popular ones, I randomly keep searching for novels with interesting premise and go ahead with purchasing them.
The one I am currently going through is ‘The Martian Race – Gregory Benford’
The one prior to Martian Race is ‘Nighthawk: NUMA Files – Clive Cussler’
So I was just hoping that you folks can list out your favorite book from the specified genre (sci-fi/thriller/mystery) & hopefully come across some interesting ones:)

not one book, but good ones are Hyperion series by Dan Simmons, Broken Earth trilogy by N K Jemison
The Game by Neil Strauss
Thrilling, in a different way.
+1 Must read book before you die
As evey recommendation is from western authors, Ill chip in an Indian one. Operation deep strike by Rahul badami (its a military fiction, you’ll e joy it if you like Tom Clancy type books) + of you are into Hindi then surendra mohan pathak is king of thrillers.
I’ll reco a retro 📖
Sherlock holmes 🕵🏻♂️ study in scarlet 🥳
And soon you will be hooked to all SH 📚🤠
thanks for pitching in. I didn’t expect the thread to resurrect after there’s been no response for 3 days!!
‘The Game by Neil Strauss’ is interesting.. bookmarked it.
While Hyperion, broken earth, foundation ones definitely fall under the exact genre I am looking for, I do not want to commit to a series right now unless its like at the best 2 books maybe in a series;) More of looking for stand-alone novels if you ask me.
wow.. foundation series has like more than half a dozen books to cover… that’s something..
For pure sci-fi I recommend Isaac Asimov’s Foundation novels.
