Hello.

I'm reading the second book in the Backyard Starship series. I find the books entertaining, but in my opinion, they lack depth.

I'm looking for some better sci-fi literature, so feel free to give me some recommendations.

Edit: Thank you all for the recommendations. I've added them to my reading list and I'm looking forward to reading them!

I like the recommend The Quantum Magician because it doesn't seem as popular as I think it should be. It's got so many things going for it. Great world building, great characters, an interesting plot and detailed explanations of interesting fictional science. Everything from large scale political drama to interpersonal drama and thought provoking philosophical dilemmas.
