I'm trying to read more science fiction (in English translation) from around the world, and I'm simultaneously keeping an eye out for new releases while combing books and sites for older titles. Here are some of the latter that I hope to read in the near future (and please add to the list in the comments!):

If you come across a copy, The Cyberiad by Stanislaw Lem is freakin' fantastic. Not as good, but a lot of fun is Nightwatch, by Sergei Lukyanenko.
