Space horror/thriller recommendations?

[Rodders]

I didn't rate it too highly myself.

Agree with Vince and Rodders on HZ3 except I wouldn't be so polite.

There's a similar thread to this where I posted some second motions and additions on SF horror and some of it is space-based.

Was not a fan of Hull Zero Three at all.

The God of The Asteroid Clark Ashton Smith

Flight of the Einstein by James Swallow. book 4 of the Horus Heresy series .

 

[Timba]

I believe there was a David Weber SF book about vampires...

Now you've done it, poor Parson's blood pressure will spike once again.

Ghost by Piers Anthony. Not a Horror Thriller per-say but has a rather interesting concept.

 

[Dinosaur]

The Expanse Series by James S A Corey.

It gets a lot of flack but the series has a sense of scale, zombie mutations that no one has a clue about and people aren't hyper compatent/mind numbingly dumb.

 

[BAYLOR]

Anachronisms by Christopher Heinz. Earth Ship encounters a seemingly harmless alien life form. As basic as this sounds, The overall story concept of is quite impressive.

Something by Asher might be closer?

Absolutely. Neal Asher knows how to make the reader squirm through his often supremely graphic passages. If you haven't tried him, I'd suggest starting with Skinner, the first in his Spatterjay trilogy. If you like it, the two sequels, The Voyage of the Sable Keech and Orbus make for a satisfying traversal of a very grim tale about some alarming parasitic creatures and some equally creepy off-world alien predators. And, along the way, you'll be introduced to Sniper, the old war drone, my favorite Asher character.
