I've been getting through more and more sci-fi books and would love recommendations on the books you've all enjoyed.

For myself I thought the Xeelee series was brilliant. Taking us from the dawn of time through to the end of the universe and around again. Fighting aliens from other dimensions and the creators of the universe themselves.

I haven't read the Vernor Vinge books you mention, but I did really enjoy A Fire Upon the Deep - it had some very unique technology and aliens. A Deepness in the Sky wasn't bad either, although it didn't quite capture the same sense-of-wonder for me.

I loved everything of his I've read at the time, and I'm sure I've read A Deepness in the Sky, but I don't remember it at all 😅 Well just gotta read them all again I guess!
