I recommended this series to my friend after he finished reading The Expanse. I never thought to describe it as sci-fi comedy. Have you found any other good sci-fi comedy series?

[folex]

I wouldn't describe it as a comedy as well.

However, I'd recommend Murderbot series, it is full of humour and shares atmosphere of Bobiverse and this personal approach to characters, as well. Highly recommend.

I am not a native speaker of English so maybe that's why. Typically anything that has lots of humor and makes the reader laugh or be amused frequently -- I think of as comedy. Is there a more nuanced distinction to what is usually called a comedy in literature / movies?

I tried to think of some other examples. Trevor Noah's biography 'Born A Crime' came to mind. I would not explicitly describe it as a comedy myself - because a 'biography' is descriptive enough as well as non-fiction by definition so any humor is mostly not made up. If it were not a biography through -- it would probably go into the comedy bucket in my mind. Maybe I am just mis applying terms here.

Yes, Bobiverse and Murderbot are very close in spirit, and if you like one you are very likely to enjoy the other. Also both have great audio narration.

If you're okay with something only tangentally related, "John Dies at the End" is spectacular, along with its sequels.

Also ya gotta read 17776 if you like Bobiverse. Try not to second guess the url: https://www.sbnation.com/a/17776-football

Almost too popular to recommend but: The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
