The Culture series by Iain M. Banks has a lot of different examples of mega-structures, and they tend to feature somewhat prominently in his stories. The books themselves are on the hard-SF side of things, but a few of them delve closer to fantasy when they pull a Star Trek, and have an encounter with a less-developed race.
Ah, I love the culture series. Too bad Iain Banks has left the building :( Anyway I read almost all of them, but I'm reluctant to crack open the Hydrogen Sonata, knowing too well that's going to be my last Culture novel...
