Los Angeles has been the setting for many classic science fiction tales. We're curious to know what's your favourite book about a future City of Angels? What makes it resonate with you?

Greener than you think by Ward Moore
Parable of the Sower by Octavia E. Butler
I Am Legend by Richard Matheson. The movie might be in New York, but the book is very clearly in Los Angeles.
Tropic of Orange by Karen Tei Yamashita

A short story rather than a book: Heinlein's "And He Built a Crooked House." It couldn't have been set anywhere except southern California.

I liked KSR's Three Californias trilogy, though it's been a while since I read them and I couldn't be sure which are set in LA rather than just the outskirts thereof.

Not necessarily a book set in the future, but I loved loved loved @rykaaoki.bsky.social’s Light From Uncommon Stars
