If you are into these kinds of mysteries, I highly recommend reading Pandora's Star by Peter F Hamilton. (even more so if you want to spend a few days reading this epic space opera)
- throwaway_pdp09 6y agoWarning: he writes huge tomes. They're far too long. The first I read was fun, the second a slog. There won't be a third.
- ImaCake 6y agoHe has a whole follow-up trilogy from Pandora's Star. They are every bit as massive and pondorous. I personally liked them just enough to finish them, but I won't re-read them. However, I absolutely love the Night's Dawn Trilogy and re-read it once every few years. I think I read it at an impressionable age and it really stuck. One could also consider reading Charles Stross' "Accelerando" which has plenty of stuff about dyson swarms.
- luspr 6y agoI only read Pandora's Star so far, but I really liked the fact that it was a rather optimistic vision of the future. Humanity had colonies on dozens or hundreds of planets, and due to life extension people were basically immortal and could even choose the shape of their body.
