I think these stories are good. Best part is these are series so if you dig them, there's a longer road to travel.
Old Man's War John Scalzi
Lazarus War Jaime Sawyer
The Lost Fleet Jack Campbell
+1
Came here to talk about Old Man’s War and specifically the scene where the humans have a battle with an alien race who is much smaller, so they literally walk through their cities kicking buildings over while the alien weapons bounce off their armor.
There are also much more advanced aliens in that book, but humans aren’t the least advanced at all.
surprised i had to scroll down so far to find Old Man's War. definitely worth a read.
