Hmmmmm. I don't think there's any aliens in Dune? That's the first one that springs to mind.

I've read some like Gateway by Fred Pohl, where (at least in the first book which is the only one I've read) there ARE aliens but they're long-dead and the human characters are just trying to scavenge the technological remnants they've left behind. IIRC the Jack McDevitt Hutch books are similar - alien life does exist but it's all died out and humans are basically doing archaeology trying to figure out what it was like. They're very good books, too, from what I remember.

It's also fairly common in time travel and alternate dimension books - for instance, there's no aliens in The Chronoliths by Robert Charles Wilson. And there's some where characters seem to be aliens but are actually humans from alternate dimensions, like [redacted because it's a spoiler] by [redacted bald author].

Secret OP

I'm sorry I wasn't clear. I meant sapient, intelligent aliens.
