Read about another entry on the list.The Lathe of Heaven, by Ursula K. Le Guin
Once again, the desire to do good results in terrible evil. George Orr has a power he can’t control: whatever he dreams turns into reality. His psychiatrist, Dr. Haber, sees the potential to improve society and begins giving George suggestions while he’s under hypnosis. But in true Frankenstein fashion, each improvement only triggers more pain. Hunger, overpopulation? Haber whispers in his ear, and George wakes to a world where millions have died in a plague. Another whisper and alien spaceships land on earth. Soon the very fabric of reality is at risk.
--Marshal Zeringue
