Greg Egan's Diaspora was very good.
- RBerenguel 8y agoHaven’t read anything more hard-sci-fi than Egan myself (Clockwork Rocket, quite good). From comments from the OP Egan may not suit (but very recommendable nevertheless)
- Jotto999 8y agoYou're right, it's the wrong book for the OP. Let them be warned: Greg Egan's Diaspora is diamond-hard scifi. If you aren't well-read in a variety of scientific concepts, aren't comfortable doing on-the-fly physics thought experiments while reading a novel, or won't be comfortable reading an extremely high vocabulary, then Greg Egan is not a good fit. But if you can read it, the reward is great. Magnificent, alien, profound. It made me realize I don't like soft-scifi.
