The Aeon 14 novels following Tanis Richards[1] have been a consistently good read. The Intrepid Saga and The Orion War series. Haven't ventured into the other offshoots as yet. The Dome Trilogy[2] was also pretty good, as are the Rho Agenda series[3][4][5]. And if you prefer horror to sci-fi, the I Am Not a Serial Killer series[6] was very good overall, although I thought it lost some steam in the last two books. And finally, The Rosie Project[7] was so completely charming I ended up reading it straight through in one night.

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
