I've been on a Larry Niven kick again and just finished Lucifer's Hammer. I last read it back in high school, so like 20+ years ago. Definitely hit differently than back then. Before that I had wrapped up Adrian Tchaikovsky's "Children" series. Most of those were pretty great. None come close to the first one though. I'm about halfway through Project Hail Mary with my daughter, so that's been fun. And I'm almost to the end of "Mort" by Terry Pratchett.
I reread King David’s Spaceship recently. Makes me want to read The Mote in God’s Eye and Footfall
Mote in God's Eye and Footfall are both great. The Ringworld series is my favorite, but the Heorot series has some great world building.
