[QUOTE="Jack of Shadows, post: 2865554, member: 3276"] Have to agree, Steve Perry's Matador novels (The Man who Never Missed, Matadora, The Machievelli Interfase, Omega Cage, The 97th Step, The Albino Knife, Black Steel and Brother Death) are great popcorn fiction. He's just released a new one in the same universe called The Musashi Flex. I'd also recommend Peter Hamilton's The Night's Dawn trilogy (The Reality Dysfunction, Neutronium Alchemist, The Naked God). Fallen Dragon and Pandora's Star are also good. Word of warning, Hamilton likes Deus ex Machina endings. Otherwise they are fantsatic reads. William C. Deitz's Legion of the Damned novels are a fun read if you like cyborg military SF. Anything by Julie Czerneda is good (Trade Pact Universe, Web Shifters) but not sure how prevelant her stuff is in the US as she's a Canadian writer. If you like David Weber than you may want to look at Walter John William's Dread Empire's Fall series. Not quite Honor Harrington worthy but still a good read. Other suggestions: Newton's Wake - Ken Macleod Slant - Greg Bear A Deepness in the Sky - Vernor Vinge (Titanium Hard SF) Diamond Age - Neal Stephenson The Takeshi Kovacs Novels (Altered Carbon, Broken Angels, Woken Furies) - Richard Morgan Ringworld - Larry Niven More Than Human - Theodore Sturgeon The Flinx novels and Humanx novels - Alan Dean Foster The Better Part of Valor and Valor's Choice - Tanya Huff And if you really want to melt your brain, anything by Greg Egan. Jack who's run out of books to read, dammit. [/QUOTE]
