Agree on Chasm City. The rest of RS has a lot of good and bad. I think the Prefect is his worst.

Outside of RS, I also liked House of Sun a lot.

That's an interesting take, as I rather enjoy The Prefect and rate Chasm City as one of his more "eh" books.

I guess I'm weird.

You are not weird. A lot of people think it is the best RS book. Different people value different things .. differently. Personally I can't go past the bad writing in The Prefect, but world building is still top notch as the rest of RS.
