Looking for books like the show 1888, 1923, or American Primeval. I guess like taming the West.

Is the 2nd Trilogy of Red Rising any good or should I just stop after the first trilogy
I finished Leviathan Wakes and Old Man’s War and o really enjoyed them both.
I know I will continue both those series.

I have never read sci fi or fantasy before other than ASOIAF. But recently picked up and finished Red Rising because somewhere on this board I was told it would be a good ease in to the genre.
I am about 2/3rds done with Old Man’s War by John Scalzi and I am really loving it. I think I will try to make it through all of the books.
Are there any other books or series similar to Old Man’s War?
I have bought Dune and Leviathan Wakes.
I was also recommended Starship Troopers.

Started Red Rising today. I have never read anything like it. Is this considered Sci Fi or dystopian??
I usually read Tom Clancy and thrillers and some Non Fiction
But wanted to get into a series.

I have the follow up in the series as well, True Believer, but I wasn't able to really get into it. I need to try it again.
The first 40% is a little slow, because Reece is on his own journey. But the second half of the book really picks up and is excellent.
The 3rd book in the series called Savage Son just came out and it is a Masterpiece!!
