The people telling their stories in Dan Simmons' "Hyperion" is remarkably human to imagine and very touching considering how it is set in a super-technological future.

The story of the Martian Settlers in Kim Stanley Robinson's b"Red, Green and Blue Mars" is also very good for it's coherence across a long timespan.

Metro 2033 by Dmitry Glukhovsky is a fantastic read, though admittedly more for its mysterious & fantastic elements than the character depth, but its highly recommended nevertheless.

That's just a few that came to mind today.

I very much enjoyed the Mars series, although it's been many years.

I've never read Simmons though, he's eluded me despite being on my 'authors I should get around to reading' list 😂

Hyperion and the Fall if Hyperion are strongly recommended.

The follow-up: Endymion & the Rise of Endymion, are also good, but in a different way and not if the same caliber IMO.

Thank you for the recommendation! When I wrap up the Stormlight Archives I'll check them out.
