Default Re: OT...great books

I read mote many years ago, it seeemd quite good. Thats written by the same pair who wrote Footfall isn't it?.
I actually came across a "The Fleet" book the other day. Would have bought it except I have bought a lot of other books recently. It was about book 4 or so and I was surprised I had never heard of it before.
For good SF I have come to rely on Peter F Hamilton. I eagerly await the next book after Pandoras Star.

Edit: Getting on to fantasy. I used to read Wheel of Time. I got into it a few years after it had started and quickly grabbed the first few books, up to about book 8 or so, but it takes like 2 years for the next book and when I waited for that 2 years and got the latest one it advanced the story absolutely nowhere, basically they wandered in the forest and did nothing, I may grab the Last one if I hear it is the very Last one but otherwise Robert Jordan has lost my interest (plus I detest the Aes Sedai). Harry Turtledove's like that as well. His series just go on for ever and I got bored at that. Still I suppose its to be expected if the war goes for 4 years.
