So it turns out I love space opera stories!
I've found some Simon R Green books which have different mixes of different genres - his old Deathstalker series (fabulous name!!) seem to be a similar mix of advanced tech, swords and battling Clans, so that's on my TBR list. I read a LOT so will no doubt have devoured that series soon, so does anyone have any more up to date recommendations in this somewhat niche genre please? 📚
