If you have already read the classics (e.g., Asimov's I, ROBOT, Arthur Clarke's CHILDHOOD'S END, Alfred Bester's THE DEMOLISHED MAN and THE STARS MY DESTINATION--the latter regarded by many as the best sf novel ever written), then check out Samuel R. Delany (esp. NOVA, THE EINSTEIN INTERSECTION, TROUBLE ON TRITON, and his magnum opus, STARS IN MY POCKET LIKE GRAINS OF SAND), William Gibson to be sure (yes, start with NEUROMANCER), Kim Stanley Robinson's Martian trilogy; for some recent stuff, Iain M. Banks' THE ALGEBRAIST and Richard K. Morgan's ALTERED CARBON. For a good anthology of stories, THE NORTON BOOK OF SCIENCE FICTION. And although I guess it's classifiable as fantasy, but China Mieville's PERDIDO STREET STATION is a mindblower.
