At work.
Genre wise we've only seen tiny excursions into cyber and steam punk. A follow on would be 'Bio-punk' of which I do remember reading a couple of books about society using gene-engineered things back in the 80's/90's.
Mark Miller's Traveller is a setting only a couple of years younger than Star Wars and has already (Allegedly) inspired Josh Wheadon's 'Fire Fly'. So something a bit more direct would be nice.
Fantasy wise there's David Eddings work. His 'Belgariad' was a good read.
