    Mark Lawrence has several trilogies that fit into this genre. They’re fantasy books but the setting/universe is based on science fiction.

    Series that I’ve read and recommend:

    Broken Empire

    Holy Sister

    Red Queens War

    I found them all an enjoyable mix of dark/grim fantasy with a good mix of humor. These series all tend to follow an anti-hero or in Broken Empire’s case you could argue it’s a villain protagonist given just how unsavory a character Jorg is. Even still I found myself liking and rooting for that bastard.
