Hello Escapees,
I've just noticed that I've never read any Carl Sagan. All right, I didn't *just* notice, but he's one of those guys who I know I'd like and always meant to read, but for reasons I can't explain have just never gotten around to it. I've always been interested in astrophysics, cosmology and space travel (despite having no academic grounding in any of them) and I'm always hearing what a fantastic pop-science writer he was, and yet there are still no Sagans on my shelf.
So, help me out here: I need your recommendations for the best Carl Sagan book to read first. If it's available as an ebook, so much the better.
