Well, 'Snowpiercer' is a great near future dystopian novel. It's set on a train that circles the frozen earth after a failed climate - change experiment. The train has a strict class system, and the lower - class passengers at the back are constantly trying to revolt against the oppressive upper - class at the front. Also, 'Station Eleven' by Emily St. John Mandel. It tells a story about a post - apocalyptic world after a flu pandemic has wiped out most of the population, and the survivors are trying to preserve culture and humanity.
Near future dystopian novels often take current social issues and exaggerate them. For example, concerns about surveillance in our modern world are reflected in books like '1984'. The omnipresent telescreens in the novel are an extreme version of how we worry about our privacy being invaded by technology today. Another aspect is inequality, as seen in 'The Hunger Games' which shows a huge gap between the rich Capitol and the poor districts, mirroring the economic disparities in our society.
One of the top 10 could be 'Snow Crash' by Neal Stephenson. It has a future where the United States has fragmented into corporate - run enclaves. 'Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?' by Philip K. Dick is another. It deals with the question of what it means to be human in a world filled with androids. 'Station Eleven' by Emily St. John Mandel also fits in. It shows a post - apocalyptic world where a traveling Shakespearean troupe tries to keep art alive.
As a form of literature, novels have a long-lasting cultural charm and a wide range of audiences. Although with the advancement of technology and the development of digital media, people may use more digital devices to read novels, novels as a traditional art form still have a wide audience.
As a form of entertainment, novels have a long history. In the past few decades, it has always been one of the important ways for people to entertain themselves. Although with the development of technology, movies, television, games and other forms of entertainment are more and more favored by people, novels are still regarded as an irreplaceable form of entertainment.
Therefore, in the near future, many people would still read novels.
I'm not certain. But considering the popularity of the Forgotten Realms, it's possible. The publishers might be planning some new releases soon to meet the demand of the fans.
Well, 'Snow Crash' by Neal Stephenson is a top pick. It shows a future where the United States has been fragmented and the metaverse exists. 'Altered Carbon' by Richard K. Morgan is also great. It features a future where consciousness can be transferred between bodies. Then there's 'The Expanse' series by James S. A. Corey. It depicts a future where humanity has colonized the solar system and the political and social tensions that arise.
😋I recommend the following novels to you, all of which are relatively short:
1. "A Female Emperor" was a fantasy genre full of imagination and beauty. It was very good to watch.
2. "The rest of my life is enough with you." It was a love story for a wealthy family. It was sweet, and the male lead was a very warm man.
3. "The Regent King Always Wants to Marry Me" was an ancient story about a fight in the palace. The female protagonist had her own thoughts, and the male protagonist fell in love with her easily.

😋I recommend the following novel to you:
1. The story of a sweeper who became an investor in "The Age of Light" was full of fantasy.
2. The female lead of "The Spirit Talker Doesn't Want to Be Famous" was a language industry worker. As she became famous, she chose scripts to make up for her "slap in the face" style of life.
3. "My Adventurer Can't Be That Strong" was a contrasting protagonist who was adventuring in a different world to level up. His writing was humorous and made people laugh.

Probably not. There haven't been any announcements lately regarding a Woody origin story. Studios usually promote such projects well in advance, and since there's been no buzz, it seems unlikely for the near future.
