I really enjoyed the 2nd one, but 3 and 4 were so insane I can barely remember them. IIRC one was about the planet of people with genetically engineered OCD they’d turned into a religion, and the other one I can’t recall right now. I don’t think I hated them at the time but just felt like a different series, like you said. The Bean novels didn’t go quite so far astray.
Alastair Reynolds
Looks like I missed this guy’s stuff, but he sounds interesting.
Yeah such a strong start then just crazy. Still I really enjoyed the books but it certainly felt unrelated.
Kinda reminds me of the Alastair Reynolds books. Very interesting but only vaguely connected
