I really loved Sue Burke's Semiosis Duology, consisting of "Semiosis" and "Interference". It's a multigenerational story of humans settling a planet, and struggling with coming into a coexistence with the native intelligent plantlife. So there are themes of how to understand non-human intelligence as well as the problems interspecies communication may present. Expecially some of the passages in the first book that are told from a plant-perspective were very original and well-written.
A duology of duology videos...brilliant! I dont think I've read any of these, I really am a series guy. In C.J.Cherryh's Alliance/Union series, there are two(!) duologies: Heavy Time/Hellburner and Cyteen/Regenesis
Wait! I have read some duologies. Two by Andre Norton that sparked my interest in SF when I read them over 50 years ago. The Zero Stone and Uncharted Stars, galactic gem trader goes from planet to planet chased by bad guys from his father's mysterious past. Beastmaster* and Lord Of Thunder, ex-soldier and his team of telepathic animals explore a strange planet. There were 3 more books written 40 years later but they don't feel right to me, so in my head it is just the original duology. *Yes the movie is kinda based on the book, they took an SF story and turned it into a Sword and Sorcery movie.
Back in the 80s, Christopher Rowley wrote a crowd pleasing duology consisting of "The War of Eternity" & The Black Ship". It's themes are very Avatar-like. The duology did so well, that Rowley decided to write a prequel to this series several years later, called "The Founder", but since the series was originally intended to be a duology, I'll include it here. Actually Robert Silverberg wrote about three dozen SF books before "At Winter's End" was ever published (since the 50s! ) I should know, because I've read most of them - his erotic books that you were referring to were written under a psuedonym, & are kept separate from his SF books. Apart from one African/historical novel : "Lord of Darkness", all of his listed books that you'll find are SF.
I read the Commonwealth books quite a number of years ago, so I don't remember problematic details, although I'm sure they're there. I really liked it. It has some great world building ideas (spoiler free: I loved the use of trains and how they got a follow up look at the initiating incident of the star going out). I've thought I'd like to experience it again, but it's just too long given how little time and brain space I have these days.
Another duology that you might be interested in, is the Cheela series by Robert L Forward, consisting of Dragon’s Egg and Starquake. He was a physicist and both these novels can be considered very hard sci-fi. They are both very good reads with the first being a little better maybe because it was so original at the time.
I've read the first Westerfield, i didn't know there was a part 2!! PFH Commonwealth is a 50:50 thing, you'll either love it or hate it. I LOVE IT!! I've read several Greg Bear books but not those. i do have them i think. Great shout on the Silverbergs, i have those and really want to read them too. 👍
Darwin’s Radio is very different from what Greg Bear normally does (at the time it was released). It’s more grounded in current day science and reads like Michael Crichton rather than super hard and dense science fiction that he’s known for.
@@secretsauceofstorycraft I was surprised how good it was. There’s a warmth and humanity to the story that you don’t always get from Bear’s hard-SF novels.
More great recommendations Whitney! Adding most of these to my TBR. I have also heard good things about the Dan Simmons sci-fi duology Ilium/Olympos. I’m actually planning on reading the new(ish) Emily Wilson translation of Homer’s Iliad and Odyssey before diving into Ilium/Olympos
Glad to see another SSS vid. You are always so vivacious when so many others try for that "serioso" atmosphere. Could not finish Hamilton. Loved Anvil AND Darwin but neither holds a candle to his greatest duology - Queen of Angels & Slant. Borrowed Man was another fantastic tale - I'm obviously attracted to the literary side - Hyperion, Queen, Borrowed. If you like this genre, try Textermination - characters live only so long as they are read and remembered - original, humorous some pathos. Take Care
Trilogy Duologies is the 3rd installment? I loved Pandora's Star ,just be aware it's like 5 books/stories in Oneology. System's Brother/Champion : I 'll have to look those up. Children of Memory should be up soon for me, but I have to finish Trials of Empire first (Richard Swan). Blue is your color. #SitsOnTheFloorAndReads
I read the Succession diptych two years ago. This intriguing Culture-esque tale has just about everything. Expansionist ‘Minds’ threatening a Zombie emperor, an epic space battle, political machinations, a big lie. Love, betrayal, revenge (not necessarily in that order). Believable characters, intricate plotting, numerous POV perspectives (including A.I.) A right riveting read.
I enjoyed the Commonwealth Saga immensely. It's very rare to see this much skill in a writer, spinning so many characters and plotlines. I'd guess some of the objection is the length and density of the work: it's not for readers who want to follow a single character point of view through a story.
1️⃣ Ooo, ooo, I’ve read Westerfeld’s “Succession” and really enjoyed it - that was a 2015 read for me. 2️⃣ Ooo, ooo, and Hamilton’s “Commonwealth Saga” - I looooooved it, but I do like a slow pace. Paula Myo is a fabulous character as I recall, but there is some extreme repetition too. Some of the others are unfamiliar and sound very interesting, like Silverberg and Posey (I love me some Military-SF). So here I’m sat looking up Posey on my favourite book purchasing place (not the ‘zon!) and I see a title that makes me go, “I’ve got that!” Yes, I have Posey’s “Every Sky A Grave” sat in my TBR, since 2021 🤦♂️ I am so bad at this “reading of books” game, am I not? So bad!!!
Never! Ur not bad at it…. I stumbled over poseys every night recently and am side-eyeing it alot lately… maybe soon… but there are so many on here i want to pickup! Sigh
Sisters of the Vast Black was a fun read; it felt unique. I didn’t even know there was a follow up book. Not sure I would have picked up the second one even if I had known. Although I enjoyed the first I don’t think I would’ve needed another.
I've seen a couple recommendations here for Dan Simmons Illium/Olympos duology and I wanted to add my vote for those. So much fun. I also suggest Joan D. Vinge The Snow Queen (Hugo winner 1981) and The Summer Queen. I believe there are a novella and a later novel set in the same world, but those 2 stand alone as a duology IMO.
Just finished a duology you might be interested in. 'Revenger' and 'Shadow Captain' by Alaistair Reynolds. If you like space pirates running around the galaxy in lightsail craft collecting treasure, this might be up your street. Great video, as always!
I did like the Peter F Hamilton series. The length didn't bother me despite the fact that I am a fairly slow reader. There was no let-down by the second book. I would recommend it to anyone who is not intimidated by the length.
Maybe Niven and Pournelle's The Mote in God's Eye and The Gripping Hand, although...the first book is generally considered far better than the second. Oh, and they also did a duology (not strictly scifi at all though) based on Dante's trip through Hell, the first is called Inferno and the second Escape From Hell.
Wolfe died in 2019, so I’m curious if he finished the work you mentioned. Also if you take another crack at Book of the new sun keep a dictionary or browser handy to look up words and characters names. He borrows from many things, and knowing that Dorcas was a the name of Saint who came back from the dead for example can help.
Great video. I'm currently reading The Forge of God and enjoying it quite a bit. I read The Risen Empire last year for Space Opera September but didn't read book two. I need to rectify that. I have Pandora's Star and Judas Unchained but am a bit intimidated by the length. I want to check out the Lina Rather books as well.
@@secretsauceofstorycraft glad it’s not just me with pandora’s star. How is Darwin’s Radio so far? I bought a copy of that for 25 cents (!) about a month ago
Loved these Duologies videos! Would you consider Hyperion Cantos and Endymion series as separate Duologies in the same universe? I read the first two books as an omnibus and I think it was a perfect contained story! Looking forward to reading Endymion Omnibus soon as well
Thanks for watching! As for your question, i think the Cantos is a complete story as 4, i would not seperate them into 2 duologies personally- esp not with the way it all ends.
Oh no! Nuns in space! Do they have miniature baseball bats up their sleeves? My mother sent to a Catholic grammar school. They never taught science. Fortunately I started reading science fiction in 4th grade and decided that I was an agnostic in 7th grade. Nuns in space in control of the ship? Mind boggling! They would crash into a star. It would spit them out. It's a Miracle!
I thought the Commonwealth series was fantastic. Darwin Radio was quite good. I also really liked Helix and Helix wars by Eric Brown and it's an easy read aswell.
Good luck with the Commonwealth books. I recall liking the second slightly better than the first, but neither rates more than 3 stars. It’s a shame because it is a good premise. The attitudes toward sex and descriptions about sex scenes are so immature that I could not get past it. Sex scenes don’t bother me I’ve read Altered Carbon and N K Jemison and their sex scenes are fine, but Hamiltons are awkward.
I enjoyed Hamilton's books, but I do have a couple of reservations about them: The ending, the big fix to the problem, was along the lines of "just blow them up with bomb thing". Not the Sherlock Holmes solution to a mystery I was hoping for. The vast majority of characters were obscenely rich and ran the civilization. Not a one of them was likable or sympathetic, and they only acted out of selfishness. We already have, in real life, a plague of rich idiots trying to control everything, I don't want to read about heroic trillionaires.
I think Pandora's Star has a lot of action. But it's like a fantasy novel with 2 alien threads and 1 murder mystery thread, plus there's an exploring a path thread. I still think it has a good scene per chapter ratio, but I want to marry Paula Myo and I like AI characters. It does have more sex than a typical scifi novel and that's polarizing. It's a romantascifi! I recently reread them both over a period of 2 months. You could do it in an hour a day, but I did like 2.5 hours a day. In Night's Dawn trilogy I would mark ahead who and where the next pov change was. If you like hard sf it's hard to get it like this elsewhere. I wish you made a video of the whole Pandora's Star audiobook. A college student dramatized the Pandora's Star prologue on youtube. ua-cam.com/video/3q6OOn7819E/v-deo.html There's a song about the alien at 66% but it's kind of a spoiler: ua-cam.com/video/o6LDk51E7fk/v-deo.html
I read Jurassic Park a few months ago. I enjoyed it in a beach/airport novel kinda way. But I disagree with those who say the novel is better than the movie. For one thing, the kids in the movie are somewhat engaging, normal, and believable (as far as anything needs to be believable in a movie about cloned dinosaurs), whereas in the book, they're bratty, stupid, and unlikable. I kept wishing with the turn of each page that they'd get eaten. I might pick up The Lost World if i spot it cheap in a used bookstore, but I'm in no hurry to get my hands on it.
I’ve read the Commonwealth Saga and I think both its fans and its critics are right haha I’ve also read Jurassic Park but not The Lost World. I liked it but not more than the movie. And I haven’t read their duologies but I’ve enjoyed other books from Bear and Silverberg.
I’m excited to check out pandora’s star and decide what I think… but currently reading darwin’s radio and really enjoying it. Thanks for watching Jonathan!!
There are some cringeworthy sex scenes, a pathetic creepy male character, and a manipulative female character in the Peter F. Hamilton's Commonwealth books. However, there is also an excellent chapter in Pandora's Star, the first book. The book Jurassic Park is better than the movie or its sequel. It is a popcorn read for me.
My TBR will follow me to the grave.
At least you won't be able to buy any more books. Zombies are only allowed in bookstores if they are in the literary form.
Ha

Love the Outriders duology. An elite special forces team with a twist, in a sci fi setting. Well paced, leaves you wanting more.
Excited to find someone who read it! I am hoping to get to it soon- the author wrote a few other books i am also interested in if I like these
I would say it leans towards action, with the sci fi sneakily woven in@@secretsauceofstorycraft
