I love Neal Asher’s books, found him a long time ago in one of those “year’s best” collections of short stories from the library (though the ones with fantasy and horror were always the best, I think I read every single collection for every year and found so many good writers that way.)
They are full of action, good characters and worlds and ideas, sweeping and huge settings. Feels almost more like watching a movie to read them.
Who among us likes these action packed stories?
Yup. The Bean books are more like, in character, the first Ender book. While the “original” sequels get into some slower more philosophical/religious things. Some of that is good, some weird, some dull.
