need some recommendations

[rdnemesis]

hello,
can i get some recommendations on a few sci fi books?
i just finished reading Orson Card's 1st four Ender books and need something more adventurous/action. also i would prefer if the book is big cause the past few books i have been reading were too short and left me wanting for more.
i liked battlefied earth by ron hubbard a lot (even though there were many mistakes in it and the characters had some problems). so im looking for something like it. thanks

Hey Nemesis
Not really into Sci-Fi but my brother loves the Dune series. Could give that a try.

Personally, I like Michael Crichton, but I'm not sure if that qualifies as action-packed or adventurous. Well, Jurassic Park might.
If you are a Star Wars fan, I totally reccommend the Thrawn trilogy (Heir to the Force, Dark Force Rising, The Last Command) by Timothy Zahn. There are a lot of good Star Wars books, so if you like those, you could buy some books by other authors.

Try DeathDay by William C. Dietz. Here's a short review from Library Journal:

A surprise invasion by the alien Saurons devastates Earth and reduces humans to slaves forced to labor in the construction of mysterious temples for their masters. When former government bodyguard Jack Manning finds himself chosen by the aliens to guard their puppet president, he realizes that he stands poised to strike a blow for freedom, if he dares. The author of Legion of the Damned begins a new series that delivers a fast-paced tale of survival and resistance that should appeal to fans of sf action adventure.

Sounds quite a bit like the type of thing you're looking for (?)
