<i>"When you are trying your hand at worldbuilding, please try to avoid ice planets, desert planets, swamp planets, farm planets, volcano planets, and other single-biome planets. The pejorative term for this mistake is Monocosm..."</i><p>What about arguably the most famous and most successful planet in science fiction? Dune, a desert planet, was a monocosm.
Worldbuilding has its own Stackexchange which sometimes has interesting discussions about difficulties in creating internally consistent fantasy worlds. <a href="https://worldbuilding.stackexchange.com" rel="nofollow">https://worldbuilding.stackexchange.com</a>
Greg Egan has recently released another novel, Dichronauts, which features another universe where the laws of physics are changed due to a sign change. (The first one is the Clockwork Rocket trilogy.)<p><a href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/30351492-dichronauts?from_search=true" rel="nofollow">https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/30351492-dichronauts?fro...</a><p><a href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/9756310-the-clockwork-rocket?from_search=true" rel="nofollow">https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/9756310-the-clockwork-ro...</a>

Just an FYI, I am one of the supporters of this guy on Patreon:<p><a href="https://www.patreon.com/nyrath" rel="nofollow">https://www.patreon.com/nyrath</a><p>There are a few things I really liked on the site and believed very strongly were important to continue disseminating. My particular interest was in some of the rocket designs and space colonization material. The author has done a good deal of genuine original research and covers some very granular design details.
If you like this, be sure to flip to the bottom of the page for the site's full table of contents. The (literal) Worldbuilding section is just one small part of Atomic Rockets, which covers practically every aspect of sci-fi and the real science (or lack thereof) behind it, in wonderfully well-researched and illustrated detail.
