The Sci-Fi, Fantasy, Spy, and Superhero Genre

Oh, can't believe I missed this thread before. I used to read sci-fi and fantasy books at a prolific rate, but in my youth I ran out of all the books from the authors I liked (Heinlein, Asimov, Clark, Pohl, Moorcock, Zelazny,...) and have struggled to find new authors that don't suck.

Thanks, @Smokin Joe! I like to read everything from an author once I start. But there are so many these days, and also so many mediocre ones. Looking for some really great. Have you read any of the series here?

I've read the Dune and Enders series, but not the others there.

I have read the Dune series, including the house prequels by Herbert's son, also worthy reads. I also read much of the Honor Harrington series by David Weber, and Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card. All good stuff. I'm not familiar with the others, and thank you for pointing them out. I like books which keep going, as long as the story doesn't get dragged out to sell more volumes.
