Inverted World—A surreal world with a very strong mystery that pulls you in. Ending is unfortunately not fully satisfying.
The Fifth Head of Cerberus (Gene Wolf) - A very engrossing story that pulls you in and keeps you interested. Not much in the way of scifi cool technology or fancy concepts, but still very good.
The Stars my Destination (also published under the name “tiger tiger”) - This is a very fun book, the author seems to be possessed by some kind of madness and I imagine them typing the book at the same furious pace it demands to be read.
Lord of Light—Very Science-Fantasy. But if you enjoyed the first Dune book and are looking for more in that vein then I would recommend that you read this in preference to the Dune sequels.
Raft (Stephen Baxter) - A really interesting story about the politics of oppression, where its all free trade, but one side needs to buy food. The backdrop is a weird looking and strange world that makes enough surface level sense to be fun. (Warning: This is the first story in a “sequence”, I would recommend against reading the others, which I thought were bad).
