It’s been awhile since I’ve read anything by him as well.
I remember another book where artifically created people inside a dwarf star were dying due to solar harvesting, IIRC. I remember it being depressing but fascinating. Don’t remember how it ends.
Evolution by Stephen Baxter (Wikipedia) was an interesting read.
Note: Baxter can be dry at times but i always enjoy the worlds he creates.

Yeah, very fair. I guess i quite like the bleakness. I love dark and gritty stories.
He’s an incredible author, I’d put him up there with Alastair Reynolds. I just can’t handle it.
