  • David Drake's RCN series.
  • Tobias Buckell's Xenowealth series (consisting so far of a bunch of short stories and the novels Crystal Rain, Ragamuffin, and Sly Mongoose).

Non-Fiction

  • A bunch of books on the nature of historical research.
  • A bunch of books about WW1 naval topics.
  • A bunch of books about the Romans, especially the end of the Roman Empire.
