Lighthuggers from the Revelation Space series are kinda awesome. It's a setting without FTL so space travel between systems is done sublight. Lighthuggers are bigass ships with powerful engines that accelerate to .99c and then cruise at just below the speed of light until their turnover point where they begin braking thrust until they reach the destination system. Their general shape and emphasis on speed reminds me of an SR-71.



Nostalgia for Infinity by Zando Zennek.

here's another take. i have Revelation Space on the brain lately cuz i got several audio books on sale and have been mainlining them.
