Seeking recommendations for a friend-group book club - the genre this month is HARD SCI FI

Previous sci fi books we've read:
- The Diamond Age (unanimously loved)
- Dune (unanimously liked)
- Annihilation (divisively liked)
- Dark Matter (unanimously disliked)

My suggestion so far is Children of Time by Tchaikovsky. Any other bright ideas from recent decades? I'm trying to stay away from anything that requires a multi book investment. And naturally anything with magical talismans, space wizards, or "proto-molocules".

Thanks for the HARD SCI FI recommendations everyone! It generated a very healthy list of choices. My book club voted and we're going with Children of Time.

Also special thanks for this. There are several :females: in the group so it was nice to diversify our author perspectives.
