I've read all of Octavia Butler, and all of Le Guin, what are some other good ones?

    Walkaway by Doctorow is a fun anarcho-communist adventure. Most of his stuff is pretty leftie but not explicitly socialist, especially the short story collection Radicalized

    Singularity Sky by Stross is sort of a retelling of the October Revolution but with nanotech and godlike AIs. His work is also mostly vaguely leftie, especially some of his Lovecraftian horror series The Laundry Files, which is partly inspired by Thatcherian austerity

    Edit: Doctorow and Stross also wrote Rapture of the Nerds together, which is a silly and weird story about FALGSC. Glasshouse by Stross is also a great mystery/thriller with a FALGSC setting that touches on gender dysphoria and body horror
