I'm a huge fan of Peter F. Hamilton myself (original username NorthernLightMountain after all) and figured there ought to be more of us around here!

My absolute favorite world of his is the commonwealth universe and really want him to get back to something on that scale again.

I've read both the Salvation and Arkship trilogies after that and even though they're both good I want brick sized epic space opera again!

Might just have to go back an revisit his books again.

I did see that he co-authored a book semi recently that managed to fly under my radar; Light Chaser (written with Gareth L. Powell).

Has anyone read it? No spoilers please :)

I love his books, and I have 110% stolen the name "Bionanonics" for use with a sci-fi character in RP forums, and if I ever write a sci-fi story I am going to probably use it there too. I am currently wrapped up in writing a fantasy serial instead though, so no idea if that will ever happen.

I have not read Light Chaser though. I should look that up.

It's just a novella so I guess it's far from his older tomes but still.
