The entire "Murderbot" series by Martha Wells is amazing, the writing style, humor and the whole story line is a must-read for sci-fi fans The "Silo" series by Hugh Howey is excellent, I read it after watching the TV series from Amazon, and no regrets. "Recursion" and "Dark Matter" by Blake Crouch is also really great

I did the same! (Well, I audiobooked it). I thought it was really good too. Though personally I liked Dark Matter and Recursion more.

If you like sci-fi, I would recommend Dark Matter by Blake Crouch. It really had some weird twists ! :)) https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/27833670-dark-matter
> I was introduced to sci-fi last year and pretty much stuck to it throughout 2018. If you're looking for additional science fiction suggestions: 1. American War by Omar El Akkad 2. Station Eleven by Emily St. John Mandel 3. Artemis by Andy Weir 4. Daemon by Daniel Suarez 5. Old Man's War by John Scalzi 6. Dark Matter by Blake Crouch 7. Red Rising series by Pierce Brown

The Wayfarers books The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet and A Closed and Common Orbit were quite good. Fantastic world building and characters, although the plots seem to meander about with not too much purpose. https://www.goodreads.com/series/170872-wayfarers Recently ploughed through The Expanse series. https://www.goodreads.com/series/56399-the-expanse Dark Matter was a good read if you like parallel universes. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/27833670-dark-matter The Rho Agenda series was a surprisingly good read. https://www.goodreads.com/series/61746-the-rho-agenda Quantum Night was something a bit different from Robert Sawyer. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/25734179-quantum-night And Barsk: The Elephants’ Graveyard would probably have to be rated my favourite for the year. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/25667916-barsk
