Overview

A space to collect sci-fi space opera standalones and series, a subgenre I want to collect and read more of.

Some notes: 

i'm using the term space opera generously. As long as the book is set in space and deals with space travel, aliens or ai, i'll allow it.

I have not read all these books so i don't know if all of them are good.
