Im into fantasy and sci Fi as favorite genres. Read all of a song of ice and fire. Tried and failed to get into the hobbit. Maybe a revisit? Last holiday book I read was the Martian. Loved it. Also have read/reading the expanse series. And really enjoyed dune audio book. What can you guys come up with based on that small info?
Edit to ask for your most simplified overview of the suggested book in a sentence or two! If possible please

Have you tried Old Man’s War by John Scalzi?
Annihilation by Jeff Vandermeer
Blake Crouch’s *Recursion*
*The Thief of Always* by Clive Barker
*The Forever War* by Joe Haldeman
First a question? You said going on holiday. Do you have a UK audible account?
Here’s the book. Terra Invictus. It’s a modern day science fiction fantasy. It begins pre-dystopian as the world and society begins to collapse. It is heavy on conspiracy, war, pandemic, Roman Republic Lore, mythology, fallen angels, secret societies, extraterrestrials and survival. It follows 2 POVs. A man and a woman. Jack who is an American from Texas and the leader or his modern day Order of Knights and Valentia who is a Romacarth General of Roman ancestry who lives in Nova Roma and fights to keep the monsters of the outer worlds at bay. Both are superb tacticians in their respective worlds. Book came out earlier this year on printed copy and Ebook but the audiobook just came out.

Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir (author of The Martian). Excellent audiobook.
Try Gideon the Ninth. A locked-room mystery about necromancers in space.
