I’m looking for some good space opera. I read a lot on royal road and KU. I love space opera, but I’m sick of military and AI tropes. Any good suggestions? The more ship to ship battles the better. I understand that may be counter-intuitive, but I’ve read several privateer/freighter/scrapper books that were amazing. Looking for more of the same.

Thanks!

    Absolutely adore fantasy too. Everything from classic, swords and sorcery to litrpg and cultivation. You got something space opera with fantasy? I’m excited.

      You can try the Salvagers series by Alex White. It’s fun space fantasy that starts with A Big Ship at the Edge of the Universe.

      Another light read that is more space drama than space fantasy and has lower “stakes” is… a book whose name I’m blanking on and definitely won’t remember until I get home to look on my shelf for it.
