I have soon finshed all of The Expanse (which I have enjoyed immensely) and last month I finished Peter F Hilton’s Pandoras Star. While I enjoyed the second half of Pandoras Star, they (it’s a trilogy) are such heavy books with rather slow pace. One of my favorite reads last year was Recursion by Blake Crouch - it’s fast paced and just a plain joy to read. The same goes for The Martian and Project Hail Mary.

Given this, do you have any recommendations for what to read next?

The Expeditionary Force novels are solid and even better if you like audio books. We Are Legion (We Are Bob) and the follow up books by Dennis E Taylor, if you like project Hail Mary these have a similar tone. Hyperion is a classic, but is fantastic!

I forgot about the We are Bob series, but I also really enjoyed them.

I thoroughly enjoyed the Bobiverse books. The first one was my favourite but they were all enjoyable. I listened to them and the narration was very well done.
