My tastes kind of go in cycles, but right now and for the last couple years I've been back heavy into science fiction, mostly what is termed hard sci-fi, meaning lots of real science in the fiction. Helps to have a good library right across the street so I've been reading tons the last year. Hard to remember most of them, but here's 10 memorable and recommendable sci-fi books I've read recently that (I think) are all from the modern era, 1990s to present.

1. Hyperion - Dan Simmons
2. The Diamond Age - Neal Stephenson
3. A Talent for War - Jack McDevitt
4. Forever War (Author's Complete Edition) - Joe W. Haldeman
5. Moving Mars - Greg Bear
6. The Reality Dysfunction: Emergence and Expansion - Peter F. Hamilton
7. A Fire Upon the Deep - Vernor Vinge
8. Revelation Space - Alastair Reynolds
9. The Wreck of the River of Stars - Michael Flynn
10. Look to Windward - Iain M. Banks
