  • The Illuminatus! Trilogy is a series of three novels written by Robert Shea and Robert Anton Wilson first published in 1975. The trilogy is a satirical, postmodern, science fiction-influenced adventure story; a drug-, sex- and magic-laden trek through a number of conspiracy theories, both historical and imaginary, which hinge around the authors' version of the Illuminati. The narrative often switches between third and first person perspectives and jumps around in time.

  • Matari (or reissued as White Wind, Black Rider) is a book written by Luke Rhinehart, a pen name of George Cockcroft. Matari was published in the UK in 1975, and is currently out-of-print and very hard to find. It was published in the US under the name of White Wind, Black Rider (2002).
  • Time Slave is a 1975 hybrid of historical fiction and science fiction by philosopher John Norman. In this book, Norman presents his personal theories of human evolution, exemplified by the case of a modern woman sent back in time twenty thousand years or more; he mourns the loss of human evolutionary fitness and distortion of "natural" social relations which in his view occurred when farming spread, and farmers squeezed hunter/gatherers to the ecological margins.

  • Shōgun is a 1975 novel by James Clavell. It is the first novel (by internal chronology) of the author's Asian Saga. Beginning in 1600 in feudal Japan, some months before the critical battle of Sekigahara, it gives an account of the rise of the daimyo "Toranaga" (based upon the actual Tokugawa Ieyasu) of the Shogunate, seen through the eyes of an English sailor whose fictional heroics are loosely based on William Adams's exploits.

  • The Chain of Chance (orig. Polish Katar) is a novel by Stanisław Lem, published in 1975. The novel is clearly grounded in the detective fiction genre, but Lem's treatment introduces many nontraditional elements. The reader is prompted not only to consider various suspects as possible culprits in a series of murders, but also the possibility that they have all happened purely by chance (hence the English title).

  • 'Salem's Lot is a 1975 horror fiction novel written by Stephen King and was the author's second published novel. The town's full name is 'Jerusalem's Lot', a location that would be revisited in the short stories "Jerusalem's Lot" and "One for the Road" both from King's 1978 short story collection Night Shift. The title King originally chose for his book was Second Coming, but he later decided on Jerusalem's Lot.

  • The Monkey Wrench Gang is a novel written by American author Edward Abbey (1927–1989), published in 1975. Easily Abbey's most famous fiction work, the novel concerns the use of sabotage to protest environmentally damaging activities in the American Southwest, and was so influential that the term "monkeywrench" has come to mean, besides sabotage and damage to machines, any violence, sabotage, activism, law-making, or law-breaking to preserve wilderness, wild spaces and ecosystems.
