    I just finished Caliban’s War [James S.A. Corey] and All Systems Red [Martha Wells] last night. (thanks for the Murderbot recommendation @fax_of_the_shadow and @windchime) Both of these are sci-fi, however the Murderbot stories appear to be more dystopian future sci-fi than ‘high science’. I’d recommend both! All systems Red is a really quick read too, and they even have an audiobook series!

    Just started on Hyperion by Dan Simmons. Unfortunately I’m only about 10 pages into it so I can’t recommend it just yet. Just it has incredible mentions by sci-fi fans.

      Yeah Murderbot isn’t heavy Sci-Fi, they’re more interesting stories told in a futuristic setting. I finished the 6th one last night and can’t wait for the 7th to come out later this year. I am hooked.
