Are you talking about Hyperion by Simmons? I love the first two books.

My favorite series gotta be Bank's Culture. There's nothing quite like those books.

One of my favorites (there are many) is Vernor Vinge's Deepness in the Sky and Fire Upon the Deep.

And, I meant Hyperion Cantos. And, yeah, the first 2 are much better than the second 2.

I wrote one of the reviews on Amazon's front page about the series third book (Children of the Sky). It's the negative one. :D

But ya, I love the first two books.
 
I’m reading Eye Of The Moonrat right now. I think that’s the book that one of us jazzfanzers wrote.

Trevor H. Cooley is the author. Is that Edgewriter here?

This book has a rating of 3.95 on Goodreads so apparently must be pretty good (and the rest of the series is rated even higher). I have it on my TBR list and hopefully will get to it someday. Let us know what you think, @fishonjazz.

Edit: Rats, my library doesn't have any of his books.

I read a bunch of Cooley's books. He has some options for audio books as well, but I enjoyed the ebooks better. I like what I've read so far, even if it's not perfect. I found some characters annoying, but enjoyed what I've read so far in the series a good deal. He had some deals in the past where some books were free on kindle, and that got me started. I'm partway through his next series, the Jharro Grove books. I think the stories are family friendly with some unique ideas.

I did enjoy reading something that a fellow jazzfanzer wrote, that may have swayed me a bit.

After reading this post again later, I want to clarify that I like the books a lot more than it sounds from the quoted post above.
I recommend checking them out.

So far (about 1/3 of the way done) I really really like it. Way more than I thought I would. I dont typically like that genre all that much but Im really enjoying it.
