What Science Fiction should I read next?

Try “Daemon” by Daniel Suarez.

Based on your other titles: Old Man's War by John Scalzi.



Based on reading Heinlein, Starship Troopers. Note, the book is mostly about social responsibility and why men go into battle. They had to strip all that out for the movies, so you would get a lot from the book even if you'd seen the movie.

Have you ever read the Uplift novels by David Brin?

How about the Culture novels by Iain M. Banks?

These are both good, but the only Uplift Novel I liked was Startide Rising (one of my all-time favorite novels), and the best Culture novel was Excession.

If you liked those, you would probably like "Singularity Sky" by Charles Stross.

Another great book is "Leviathan Wakes" which is the first novel in the "Expanse" series. The first three books in the Expanse series are excellent, but I though they tailed off a bit after that (although I still read all the others as well).

I have enjoyed the Expanse TV series and I was thinking about reading the books. I already know the basic story (which is a downside for me). I might pick those up yet.

I watched the Expanse series on TV before I read the books as well, and I still enjoyed the books immensely. There is enough difference in nuance and detail to make it worth it to read. Also, the books offer new insights into some of the unspoken areas of the TV Series.

Oralloy... have you come across the "Expeditionary Force" series yet? I suspect that you might like it, it is very pro-military (in an interesting way) and told from the point of a US army Corporal starting with an alien invasion. The story really changes in the middle of the first novel with the introduction of "Skippy" (the first several chapters are introduction).

I don't want to give away any spoilers... but these books are a damn fun read.

I just finished "Fool's War"... what an amazing book! That was a fun read with a lot to say.
