Why read it?
1 author picked Sailing Bright Eternity as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
The first sci-fi I ever read, plucked from a dusty shelf on a mission compound in Niger.

This is a book (and series) that melds the rigor of hard SF with the scope and imagination of the best space opera, following the remnants of humanity as they flee inscrutable, implacable AI monstrosities. It makes the universe feel visceral and terrifyingly beautiful, and makes the reader feel like an ant.
From Rich's list on sci-fi to bend your brain and crush your soul.
