I love Neal Asher’s books, found him a long time ago in one of those “year’s best” collections of short stories from the library (though the ones with fantasy and horror were always the best, I think I read every single collection for every year and found so many good writers that way.)

They are full of action, good characters and worlds and ideas, sweeping and huge settings. Feels almost more like watching a movie to read them.

Who among us likes these action packed stories?

    For shows, Battlestar Galactica is always great. I just started watching Caprica and loving it so far. It might not be an “opera”, but it does so much to fill out the Battlestar Galactica universe.

    I also just started reading The Expanse series and would definitely recommend it, even for someone like me who’s not an avid reader.

      I liked Caprica a lot, and wish it’d gone on longer.

      I actually think it was TOO sci-fi for some, though.
