Light on the science and big on scale and action. Pure escapism and maybe a little cheese on the side.
I'm sure you guys can recommend some to me.
"Deathstalker" by Simon R. Green.
You don't get any bigger on scale and action, told at a breakneck pace, with great characters, light on the science and just a pleasent hint of cheesiness. An actionpacked epic overflowing with fun ideas, great heroes, loathsome villains, and lots and lots of fighting.
