I’m currently reading the Wool omnibus by Hugh Howey. It’s pretty decent I’ve been making very rapid progress as it’s been too hot to sleep here recently now the summer has arrived.

I haven’t seen the Apple show, but maybe I’ll watch it in the future when I’ve finished all the books (I had Shift and Dust as well).

    Seveneves by Neal Stephenson. Was a recommendation on the R site.

    Complex, eon spanning, hard sci-fi. I’m loving it!

      If you could, what other sci-fi works would you compare it to? I am wrapping up the Children of Time series and could use something else.

        I sold Seveneves to a friend by saying it is like Neal Stephenson wrote The Martian. Well, at least the first 2/3 of it. It talks a lot about the science how how an event like the one described in the book might happen but with the kind if granularity and verbosity you would expect from NS.
