Alastair Reynolds, especially his Revelation Space trilogy are great hard sci Fi novels. He's a former astrophysicist so he knows the hard limits.

I find most of his works to be good musings on humanity with a bit of alien horror.

I'm surprised to not see "Pushing Ice" advanced as the leading Reynolds recommendation.

I think his other works are good, but in my view Pushing Ice is an usually good stand alone work.
