I've finished the "Old Man's War" series from John Scalzi. It was great!

Can you recommend any other good sci-fi series playing in space for my next read?

Second these.

For his other books, Aurora and 2312 are both space heavy.

    I recently re-read Aurora. It's incredible, maybe my favorite of his.

    I've not yet read 2312 because when I find an author or director I like I want to spread out reading/watching them. I hate the idea that one day I'll have read all of KSR's books. I think it's time to dive in though.

    I kind of do that too. I read the Mars series for the first time a few years ago, and read 2312 and Aurora back to back a few months ago. NY 2140 will probably be my next one of his.

    I've also had The Martians (short stories from the Mars series) on my desk for a couple of years now, and I read it in short spurts here and there.
