Just finished the first three books of the Locked Tomb trilogy by Tamsin Muir (4th book out soon lol). Great storyline, interesting concept of Necromancers in space.
Also just finished Snow Crash by Neil Stephenson. Fun book kinda short.
Currently reading Altered Carbon by Richard K Morgan.
The pyramids were built with the help of beer.
Do with that what you will
