Thanks for all the recommendations that everybody made here.
I will start scouring the file sharing networks to see which ones I can find.
My own favourite at the moment is A Lodging of Wayfaring Men, but this is more about sustainable communities than garden based permaculture.

The real lack of permaculture in science fiction and fantasy was bought home to me yesterday when I attended Asia's largest cosplay convention. Youngsters everywhere were snapping up LRP swords and playing shoot em up type video games.
I just wish that there had been some permaculture type role models for them to draw influence from. Maybe a sacred food forest druid or an Alan Moore type Swamp Thing creature. It was sad that everything was based almost solely around sex and violence. Even Avatar seemed to have made very little impact. I do hope that this can change in the future.
