I'm normally a bit more of a hard scifi reader with the likes of Bobiverse and Expanse (and Andy Weir/Thaichovsky/IanMBanks/Herbert etc) but I really enjoyed this humerous take on a rogue cyborg.

Is there anything out there in this vane I should look into?

Peter F Hamilton is fun to read, but boy does he like deus ex machina resolutions to his plots.

Along the space battle/space military route there's the Vorkosigan Saga and Vatta's War.

I'm a big fan of Vatta's War, it was a breath of fresh air after reading a lot of David Weber. (Weber's space battles are unmatched but his political views are so frustrating)

I'll have to try the Vorkosigan Saga. Thanks!
