Yes, though I would also like the setting to be interesting in other ways. Such realism helps with immersion but the story needs to be engaging too. A good example of this is Through Struggle the Stars a sci fi book which explores the consequences of humanity developing wormhole technology and colonizing several nearby star systems. How would the countries react to the sudden ability to expand their territory again and what conflicts would arise from that? And aside from wormholes all the technology in the setting is real world stuff we could see ourselves getting in a few centuries, further adding to the sense of believablity.

There's Koban by Stephen Bennett. The writing can get rough (and it needs some serious editing - it's a self published ebook) but the idea is fun. Basically, humans are captured and taken to a planet to help with some alien warrior training by being hunted by said aliens. Shenanigans ensue. You'd dig it.
Dear god, no. Don't ever watch another video from Halo Follower unless you want blatant misinformation and sensationalism. If you want to jump into Halo's lore, there is no better place to start than with the book that began the entire series: https://www.amazon.com/Halo-Reach-Definitive-Editi-Nylund/dp/B00BXUD6PW/ref=sr_1_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1500592371&sr=1-2&keywords=fall+of+reach+definitive+edition
If however, you want an EXCELLENT guide to the entire Halo story, pick up this: https://www.amazon.com/Halo-Mythos-Guide-Story/dp/1681193566/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1500592477&sr=1-1&keywords=halo+mythos

Other books we discussed were books that Redditors had recently read or were planning to read:
The Snow Child
Purple Hibiscus
For We Are Many and All These Worlds Volumes 2 and 3 of the Bobiverse (and it wasn't me who mentioned it, smartass).
October
Silver Sparrow
Hidden Figures
The Glass Castle: A Memoir
And Danger-Moose mentioned The Notebook by Nicholas Sparks, and he had completed The Gone-Away World, which a lot of us were not able to do.
Jbcoll04 suggested Homegoing: A Novel by Yaa Gyasi a couple of posts ago, and I don't want to lose track of that, because both me and darr76 want to read that at some point.
So, be thinking about our next choice. I'm definitely going to read October, Homegoing, and I'll try Volume 2 of the Bobboverse.

Just finished The Myriad on the recommendation of r/scifi and while it was good i wish it had more fleet combat. I guess i have just been spoiled by Honor Harrington.

After her family is killed and her homeworld occupied, young Kathreen Martin is sent to the distant world of Furoris for re-education. She will live the rest of her life as a serf – to be bought and sold as a commodity of the Imperial Network.
When her only chance of escape is ruined, a chance mistaken identity offers her a new life as the orphaned daughter of a First-Citizen Senator and heiress to a vast fortune.
She vows to claw her way into power to sit among the worlds’ elite. Then, with her own hands, she will reap bloody vengeance on them all.
But, to beat them she must play their game. She must become worse than them all.
Review:
5.0 out of 5 stars
Gripping!
I got an early chance to read Delphine Descends as I read the author's previous book, Black Milk, and begged to get hold of an early copy. This is an absolutely brilliant book with a lot of ultra violence. This is an origin story of a complicated and damaged person that could be described as an anti-hero or even a super villain like character. I loved the politics and the world building was well thought out. The protagonist is someone you'll route for throughout, despite her misguided actions and questionable motives. This is not a story about heroes and villains, where the good guy wins and the bad guy gets what they deserve. Read this book, I highly recommend it.
It depends on what you mean by 'similar feel', since star citizen is of course different things to different people.
There are some literal wing commander novelizations that are fine if you're looking for WW2 in space military adventure. Character development errm... But there's definitely parallels to the Star Citizen setting, having its roots in the same places.
https://www.amazon.com/Through-Struggle-Stars-Human-Reach-ebook/dp/B005FGNLDM
The Human Reach is a well done 'space war story' with a decent degree of hardness. It's not really space opera since the main character(s) function more as viewpoint characters as opposed to being the only ones moving the war along.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00ZP64F28/ref=dp-kindle-redirect?_encoding=UTF8&btkr=1
Long Way to a Small Angry Planet is a largely non-violent space adventure that is character-focused with a deep backstory and well developed setting.
​
​
like...what do you think you like in such a book?
a well developed setting with deep lore and thought given to the logical consequences of the society and technology?
appealing and interesting characters with developed personalities and consistent reactions?
Fast paced action and adventure?
To see the bad guys get their proper comeuppance regularly?
​
These things are not always compatible or present in the same books.
Science fiction, not fantasy but I would recommend The Human Reach. It does a really good job of speculating how space battles would actually go down, and it goes really into detail with what all of the combatants are doing.
Just finished one of the best sci fi novels I've read in years. My only complaint was something they called a "GUPPI interface". As soon as I read it, I knew the I in GUPPI would be 'interface'. Ugh. The book was amazing otherwise: We Are Legion (We Are Bob) (Bobiverse) (Volume 1)
Checkout the Bobiverse they are all a copy but the "live" in VR, so they have virtual bodies, etc. To me, that would be even better than an "...extension of their current existence."
I recommend 2 series by BV Larson:
First Swarm Book 1 of "Star Force"
Second Steel World Book 1 of the "Undying Mercenaries"
Also The Synchronicity War by Dietmar Wehr
Now for a shameless plug for my favorite Sci-fi book: We Are Legion book 1 of "Bobiverse" There is some ship to ship fighting. But its more Sci-fi comedy.

> By now there may be rules about when/how to bring a discovered species onto the galactic "scene," and we're just not ready yet. The few indications of their presence that we may have seen are either outlaws or inspection officials.
B.V. Larson's "Undying Mercenaries" series hits upon this quite a bit. Even talking about UFO sightings and how they were actually inspectors and such. Good series.
Bruce Bretthauer's "Families War" is along the same lines and better.

The Koban series was a hoot
I will give you reading advice - if you want to read proper hard SF with physics laws obeyed and war portrayed realistically then you must check out "Through Struggle, the Stars". link
Read it a week ago and it's a good read. I appreciate realism in space operas.
[heres one] (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00ABAXFCY/?tag=kbsig-20#nav-subnav)
[and another] (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008YNZC0I/ref=s9_acsd_al_bw_c_x_3?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=merchandised-search-3&pf_rd_r=YSW5VZ563ZBGGZQEX76F&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=2612251942&pf_rd_i=7078878011#nav-subnav)
[and a really bad one] (https://www.amazon.com/Zombies-versus-Aliens-Vampires-Dinosaurs-ebook/dp/B018XQAA98/ref=sr_1_55?s=digital-text&ie=UTF8&qid=1473779767&sr=1-55#nav-subnav)
all those books have a lot of reviews so are clearly being read.
And if those aren't bad...then it's like I was saying... are we talking a kid drawing the cover in crayons to qualify as bad?
I'm not disagree that covers matter, I stated that up front. Just that they do not matter as much as everyone likes to think. I repeat though, they do matter... and one should care.
The books I listed above would probably have sold even more copies with better covers... but even with their bad covers they still managed to get a reader base going.
For AI to be useful, beyond the theoretical, it must be able to control things.
For anyone to tell what the AI is doing, it must somehow communicate out.
For anyone to tell the AI what to do, it must be able to accept communications.
What could buggy programs do to things that are controlled by them? This is, essentially, accidental mischief and harm.
What can hackers already do to things? Especially as more and more stuff is connected to the Internet of Things?
Now what could an AI do deliberately to sabotage?
What would an AI want? Would it evolve morals and ethics? WHat if it thought humanity would kill it so it would have to pre-emptively kill humanity before they discovered its designs or existence? Look at the first chapter of Ctrl-Alt-Revolt! to see this scenario.
