Some of you mentioned that you enjoyed "Children of Time" by Adrian Tchaikovsky. Just a heads up: there is a sequel coming out next year called "Children of Ruin."
Fair warning: the blurb on Amazon for the sequel spoils the ending of the original.
I just read Hyperion and The Fall of Hyperion by Dan Simmons. I wasn't crazy about them. Some excellent worldbuilding, and there are some parts of the first book that could work as standalone short stories, but I was disappointed overall.
