Since we're on a new thread: Humanity's Fire by Michael Cobley is a good space opera trilogy. Extremely expansive universe, arguably too many view points and excellent world building. It falls into hard sci-fi and can be a pain in the rear end at times, e.g. too many view points, certain cliches, etc., but it's an entertaining and engaging series. The best comparison I can think of for it would be Mass Effect meets The Culture. A few of us were discussing it in the last thread so I decided to bring it back up. And as of now I am almost done with the second book . I'll hopefully be able to finish the series this week and write up a better review of it. e: In my opinion, it's far more enjoyable space opera than The Lost Fleet & The Expanse (Leviathan Wakes). I still enjoyed both of those series, but this is series is far more invested in world building, galactic politics & war, etc. than The Lost Fleet & The Expanse.

Bizob posted:The fact that this conversation happens in this thread over and over suggests people actually do want to read this and have this discussion. I'm not in this thread to read your armchair analysis of authors. e: mistook you for another based on av Iseeyouseemeseeyou fucked around with this message at 23:30 on May 8, 2014 |
