What is your favorite type of sci-fi? For me since Ive always been interested in life in the universe/space exploration, anything regarding that. I love golden age sci-fi and reading what they thought we would do in space back in the 40s and 50s

I have been thinking about what to recommend for you.
Try Black Ocean: Galaxy Outlaws by J.S. Morin.
It is space opera in the best way. Interstellar travel is made possible by wizards or enchanted star drives.
Imagine if you needed to have a Jedi onboard to jump to light speed, or a FTL drive made and maintained by Jedi.
The magic is great, the tech makes sense and the whole thing takes place on a ship full of interesting characters as they try to make their way. The author was clearly inspired by StarWars and Firefly. They do a great job of pulling it together.
There is an audiobook omnibus if you prefer that or you can pick up the kindle versions for reasonable prices.
Tell me if this hits the spot, because I thought about it pretty hard!
Sounds very interesting, thanks!
Stick with it. It gets steadily better as the author finds their voice. More of the universe gets explained as things happen.
Enjoy.
