One for five.  I love "The Star Beast".  It is one of my six star out of
five star books.

 _The Adolescence of P-1_ is one of my favorites.    It anticipated early
artificial intelligence.
 _The Two Faces of Tomorrow_ by James P. Hogan is an almost prescient
tale about developing an AI.  Some rather interesting parallels with
the modern machine learning exercises incorrectly called artifical
intelligence.
 Of course one would would be remiss to leave out D.F. Jones _Colossus_ et alia.

I think four of five, which may be a first for me. Don't know the P-1, two sound familiar, and two I know I've read.
