I haven't read Quantum Magician but certainly agreed on the Three Body Problem and Children of Time. Fantastic books.
Some others I really like:
I don't see many people recommending Ancillary Justice, but really enjoyed the series. I thought it was a pretty light read as far as Sci-fi goes, but it ticked all the right boxes for me.
I wouldn't call AJ a light read, just because you spend so much time wrapping your brain around what the narrator is doing and the cultures are so deliberately weird. All the more rewarding for it though imo.
well compared to some of the really dense classic sci-fi I considered it a light read lol.
"Ticking all the boxes" describes Ancillary Justice well for me, it has a bunch of interesting thing and the fit together and play out well. I also found it interesting to see how quickly the gender neutral thing felt natural.
The sequel however felt like a syndicated tv crime drama. Haven't gotten myself to read the third yet.
I know that I read all the books and enjoyed them but its been years. The first one was the best in my opinion though.
