OK... just finished reading "Look to Windward" by Iain M Banks yesterday, and I can't recommend it highly enough. It's great, and it has a quite a strong SEIV feel to it.
Some of the features that will appeal instantly to SEIV fans...
Ringworlds
Cool alien races,
Inter-imperial politics & intel operations,
Ships with comical / ironic names=-)
Lots of stellar manipulation,
Keen sense of humour=-)
I think there was some iced tea in there somewhere as well...
It's just a brilliant sci-fi book. Someone please go read it so I'll have someone about it to.
Oh, and did I mention that the cover looks really cool=-)
take a look
