Greg Bear
The 'Darwin' Series
Bear is one of the modern masters of 'hard' SF (scientific detail & accuracy) and this story marks a return to the kind of cutting edge speculation that made his earlier works some of the genre's all time classics. Centered on well-developed, highly believable figures who are working scientists, these fine novels are sure to please anyone who appreciates literate, state-of-the-art SF.

Gregory Benford
Galactic Centre
This begins as a standard ‘first contact’ story, but from the second book in the series, it leaps into the future, presenting a dazzling look at ‘strange aliens’ from a human viewpoint.
