Well, if there were something like "epic hard sci-fi", I'd say Baxter writes it.
My favorite book by him (of those I have read) is
The Time Ships, a sequel to Wells's
Time Machine. And since you mentioned his collaboration with Arthur C. Clarke, I liked
The Light of Other Days very much too.
A part from this, I finished
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire yesterday. I hadn't read it in a while, mostly listened to the audiobook (the Stephen Fry version), but now it is so much more convenient to read since I have all the books on my Kindle. I have now started
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, of which I intend to read a chapter or two in between all the other books I have started...
