I only read Pandora's Star so far, but I really liked the fact that it was a rather optimistic vision of the future. Humanity had colonies on dozens or hundreds of planets, and due to life extension people were basically immortal and could even choose the shape of their body.

Definitely read the sequel Judas Unchained. Those books are probably my favourite novels.

For more Peter F Hamilton optimistic future of humanity, see the Night's Dawn trilogy.

Thank you! Any other optimistic and believable sci-fi you would recommend?
