I don't know about 'contemporary' but I always loved Heinlein
(Stranger in a Strange Land is probably appropriate for the HN crowd)
Also, really can't go wrong with Terry Pratchett.
P.S. - I have the same problem, its been years since I read for 'fun'. Mostly all tech stuff now.
- ryanmercer 6y agoHeinlein is always great. Check out B. V. Larson's Swarm and Undying Mercenaries series, Dennis E. Taylor Bobiverse series, and Craig Alanson's Expeditionary Force. Also what I mentioned to OP, what I'm doing my annual re-listen of https://www.goodreads.com/series/51166-troy-rising https://www.goodreads.com/series/51166-troy-rising They're not Heinlein by any means but they're fairly good hard science fiction. The audiobook versions all have fantastic narrators too if one has a commute.
