- MattPalmer1086 4y agoI'd say Eon, Blood Music or Queen of Angels. Also Songs of Earth and Power.
- mikelevins 4y agoAll great suggestions. I'd add Moving Mars.
- knoke 4y agoBlood Music is a quick read that escalated even quicker. I loved Forge of God and even more so it’s successor Anvil of the Stars.
- flir 4y agoMy personal favourite is Queen of Angels. (The sequel was a disappointment). Eon is the best, but it's tied to the geopolitics of the 80s. Blood Music is, I think, almost as good as Eon but isn't quite so "of it's time". Slightly more accessible. I'd start there. He also has a fine body of short fiction, including the short Blood Music is based on. For that, you could try the collection Tangents.
- olvy0 4y agoI second the recommendation for Queen of Angels and Blood Music. Loved them both.
- foobiekr 4y agoForge of God and Eon. Both are excellent and both have excellent sequels that wrap everything up.
