The station ends up being on the frontlines after the Earth Company Fleet fights a tactical withdrawal. The novel and it's sequal Regenesis are concerned mainly with the Councillor of Science Ariane Emory, her murder, and her subsequent replacement with her clone.ĭownbelow Station is set on a spacestation orbiting the living world of Pell (Tau Ceti) during Cyteen's war of independence. The Chanur Saga.įor some reason CJ Cherryh doesn't get much play around here but here Alliance Union novels and connected Chanur universe are some of my favourite political and military scifi.Ĭyteen is set on the world of Cyteen that has formed a breakaway state from Earth and has some controversial practices such as cloned, tape conditioned slaves and a system of governance that allows people to vote only in their field of expertise. It doesn't have space travel, but it has aliens, after a fashion and some cool tech and stuff. A Signal to Noise, also by Nylund is pretty cool. Swarm is an interesting one, doesn't have the depth Ender's Game does, but it's fun. That's more military sci-fi, very similar to Armor or Starship Troopers. If you're looking for more action, I'd try A Hymn Before Battle, by John Ringo. It's a quick read and it's really fun and bad ass. So, IF you can find it for a decent price, and I do mean IF, definitely give it a shot. Oh, and it's about a search for the Holy Grail. It's a sci-fi mixed with a tad bit of fantasy. It's about a corporate assassin with several different people in his head constantly fighting for control of his body. The main guy from A Game of Universeb was number one. I heard about it from a list titled "Ten fictional children that had more fucked up childhoods than yours." fully expected Ender to be number one. Know any others?
