I’ve read a handful of books in the genre, but I often find that characters are treated as an afterthought. More like devices to move the plot forwards. I’m looking for some great sci-fi books/series that feature both cool sci-fi concepts and have well written characters. I don’t mind a very dark/grim setting as long as it’s easy to care about the characters.
Not looking for any comedy-oriented stuff like Hitchhiker’s Guide.
For more info, I’ve already read:
* Dune, Dune Messiah, Children of Dune
* Seveneves
* Three Body Problem, The Dark Forest
* Snow Crash
* Ender’s Game, Speaker for the Dead
* Foundation
* Brave New World
* The Dark Tower series
* A whole bunch of 40k & Horus Heresy books
