I am a fan of British sci fi author, Peter Hamilton.
One trope he consistently returns to in his universes is the group of humans who buggered off somewhere to try to build a post scarcity society of some kind.
And each new iteration, it feels like the seed group gets closer and closer to a transsexual polycule.
And I’m utterly here for it.

Some of his stories are set there directly: some of them borrow the place names; and some of them have sly little hints that put me back in a particular lane or copse or village, with the realisation "Oh, it's *there*" which makes me smile, remembering.

in reply to gz • •@gz Commonwealth Saga (Pandora's Star), or the Salvation trilogy (which is my favourite, but opinions differ).
Lots of people like the Night's Dawn trilogy, but it's early work and I think he concentrates on world building at the expense of plot there.
