Really wanting sci-fi and not fantasy. Id really like very atmospheric sci-fi or something zany with cool aliens. Nothing with tons of space battles or alien invasions. Also suggestions of kind of niche not well known books are very welcome. I get it, Dune is a great book, can I get a book list of recommendations that doesn’t include it.

The Expanse by James S.A. Corey
Stranger in a strange land by Robert Heinlein. An oldie but goodie
See Hyperion by Dan Simmons.
Check out Adrian Tchaikovsky. He does things a little different, so he’s a good change of pace from stodgy, old sci-fi tropes.
Last Man Standing by Craig A. Falconer or Annihilation by Jeff VanderMeer
