I'm a huge fan of Peter F. Hamilton myself (original username NorthernLightMountain after all) and figured there ought to be more of us around here!

My absolute favorite world of his is the commonwealth universe and really want him to get back to something on that scale again.

I've read both the Salvation and Arkship trilogies after that and even though they're both good I want brick sized epic space opera again!

Might just have to go back an revisit his books again.

I did see that he co-authored a book semi recently that managed to fly under my radar; Light Chaser (written with Gareth L. Powell).

Has anyone read it? No spoilers please :)

I read Great North Road and Pandora's Star, and they were both pretty damn good, although not what I've been looking for lately in my fiction. I really need to pick up Judas Unchained at some point and actually finish the commonwealth saga, but it's been about three and a half years now that I've been putting it off, so I feel like at this point I'm going to have to reread Pandora's Star to know what's going on lol

I think you just might have to! Well maybe not have to but it's a great book and the next book will make more sense.

Then you have another five books after that in the same universe! :D
