    Most of his books are standalone, but set in the same universe yes. They kind of follow each other, but can also be read as standalone books.

    Pushing Ice is one of the better ones imho, I love that book. The first book I ever read from him was Revelation Space and it blew my mind. One of the absolute best books I’ve ever read. He has a way of creating a universe that feels absolutely real and logical, yet be completely different from the world we know.

    Another good one is Redemption Ark.

    And if you like stuff like this I can also recommend Fred Saberhagen, his books are excellent. They are old but hold up pretty well.

      Brilliant, thanks. I’ll see how I get on with Pushing Ice, but popped the others on the wishlist. I imagine I will very much like stuff like this, so added Fred Saberhagen too (The Berserker ones I’ve heard of before).

        The redemption ark trilogy and anything connected to the conjoiners.

        If you like Reynolds, Richard K. Morgan’s Altered Carbon trilogy is top notch, the TV series was disappointing.
