I really enjoy Peter F. Hamilton and I think I could read the Void Trilogy forever
Same for a couple of the Culture books by Iain M. Banks and some Alastair Reynolds books.

I tend to re-read a lot of books though, especially if I just fancy an easy read, like Pratchett stuff. I know it's popular now to rag on Pratchett but some of the Guard books are brillo in my opinion (sorry everyone I don't mean to offend)

I invented ragging on Pratchett.

Have you read any of Tom Holt? I quite like his stuff.
I don't know the first three, what sort of stuff is it about?

I read one of his, quite liked it but it's been ages and I think it wasn't the first of the series
The Void Trilogy is a follow up to the Commonwealth Saga, far future sci-fi stuff, about a void at the centre of the galaxy which goes through periods of expansion and is also worshipped by a human cult.

Is it worth watching that commonwealth one first? whats the first one of those?

I didn't enjoy the Commonwealth Saga as much (just cos one aspect of the story annoyed me, seemed a bit 'magical quest', off we go to save the world diddle dee nonsense)
But yeah they're probably worth going through first, still good books, just didn't like them as much as the latter 3.

I've only read the Night's Dawn trilogy of his,
I liked them but every time I look at how thick they are I think of all the other things I could be doing.
I also enjoyed the revelation space trilogy. Ithink I'm just a sucker for trilogies
