JayJay posted:Can anyone recommend a good science fiction space pew pew lazers "epic" series. Aka spanning multiple books with the same characters. I do not like when books end. I couldn't let this post pass without mentioning the Night's Dawn Trilogy by Peter F Hamilton. Although it's a trilogy, the print is really small and each volume weighs in at over 1000 pages, so it's more like about 6 "normal" sized books. It certainly fits the bill for epic. The very first chapter in the first book is not explained until nearly the end of the second. I won't give away the main premise as that could be seen as a spoiler by some, as part of the mystery of the first book is figuring out exactly what the gently caress is going on. All I will say it is skillfully combines hard, intelligent sci-fi with elements of horror on a truly grand scale. Also contains one of the most depraved, evil bad guys I've ever encountered in fiction: Quinn Dexter.

What would be the science fiction equivalent to the Wheel of Time?

I've got a few of the ones that have been specifically mentioned on the podcast on hold at the library, but while I'm waiting for those to get transferred I'm looking for something I can hopefully read on my Nook. Isn't the best way to debunk Ancient Aliens to just watch it?
