Sci-fi, a community for science fiction.
Love Revelation space.
Other authors I like:
Children of Time is one of my all-time favorite books. Still need to get around to reading the sequels.
I enjoyed his other series too if you haven't read them - Blue remembered earth and Revenger universes most recently. In general though he's much better at world building than tidying up the narrative.
My favorite author is Gene Wolfe. His stuff doesn't connect with everyone, but it definitely connects with me.
That man was a magician. He didn't just write stories, he cast spells. I don't know of anyone else like him.
The Sun series is my favorite. If you're curious, the collection of his short stories is quite good.
The Island of Doctor Death And Other Stories And Other Stories
I'll have to check out Reynolds! Sounds interesting
I'm a big fan of Stanislaw Lem. The Futurological Congress is one of the funniest scifi satires I've read.
If you haven't read the Culture books, you should check them out. It isn't hard scifi, but lots of cool ideas and great storytelling.
I was always a fan of:
Neal Asher, the Polity series. Greg Egan, so many but start with Permutation City maybe. Neither are as beloved as the Revelation Space ones for me, but I really enjoyed them. Also Uplift Series by David Brin (Tchaikovsky, too} for uplift fiction, Fast Times at Fairmont High by Vernor Vinge of you like singularity fiction, Charles Stross' Accelerando is a bunch of great, weird short fiction with ties between the stories. I have only read Bobiverse book 1 but it was good, I will probably read more. Stephenson, I love them all, maybe Anathem best of all. I'll stop here because this is something I could probably keep going with for quite a while hehe.
I liked The Prefect too
And Chasm City was incredible.
