MODERATORS
I really enjoy Kim Stanley Robinsons books, the Mars trilogy especially. However a couple of his standalone books are also great (Aurora and 2312).
Also, I love peter f Hamiltons world building. Pandoras Star kicks off a huge story spanning 7 odd books.
And finally, James sa Corey and the expanse series are phenomenal.
Seconded for Peter Hamilton books, a total of 8 books if you include the prequel Misspent Youth.
One warning that the story perspective jumps between many different characters viewpoints before bringing them together. It can feel really confusing and irrelevant until you get further into the book.
Second for Kim Stanley Robinson, 'Aurora' is a standalone book about a generation ship that I enjoyed.
