I'm looking for books to read, since I have more free time than I used to and I want something to do that I don't feel weird mentioning to my family when they ask what I'm doing to keep busy. Ideally fiction or relatively non-serious nonfiction, so this isn't a request for theory, though I might read it if you recommend it. I'm cool with whatever genre wise, but at least give a brief description. Ideally I should be able to get it at my local library, but if it's too obscure for that I'm fine with using other methods.
The first book I read in the series had not even a trace of fully automated luxury communism , and I felt cheated. It was basically just James Bond in space.
Pretty sure the book was The Use Of Weapons.
Granted, this one is a little less FALGSC. Try maybe Look to Windward or Surface Detail (perhaps my favourite) if that's the part that interests you the most.
