Thanks to the poster for submitting this.

I'm just now reading the last of the Culture Series[0] by Ian Banks (not included in the list, and for good reason) and will be looking for something new soon.

I didn't see Nightfall[1] in the list (although I just skimmed, so it may be there), which (indirectly) addresses orbital dynamics in a system with multiple stars. Perhaps it should be included?

I've been a Banks fan for a long long time - if you liked the Culture series you might like the Neal Asher Polity series. They aren't quite as well written as Banks - but they do make up for it with a lot of action and some superbly crafted scary beasties (Hooders being particularly terrifying).


Thanks for the recommendation!
