I just finished Crystal Rain by Tobias Buckell. This was only my first sf read of the year, but I'm willing to bet it will be up there in my top three sf books at the end of 2007.
I really enjoyed the original storyline. IMO, the "forgotten colonists" thing is sometimes overused, but I feel Buckell gave it a nice new spin. And, it wasn't too heavy on the hard sf (which I don't care for). Buckell has obviously left things open for more books. Ragamuffin is due out soon. Hopefully he revisits the world or character of Crystal Rain again.
