To be specific, one is a watch and one is a read. _Darker Than Black_ season 1, specifically, is an absolutely brilliantly put together show. There are more seasons but they completely fail to capture the same lightning in a bottle.
_Nova Swing_ is the middle part of a loosely connected trilogy, and the only part that is a Roadside Picnic. Overall it's like reading Iain M. Banks if he was even more deranged. Weird space, weird people, weird physics.
M. John Harrison has the absolutely funniest take on aliens in these books. If you decide against reading it I can tell you about it, otherwise, just go experience it.
