I've been getting through more and more sci-fi books and would love recommendations on the books you've all enjoyed.

For myself I thought the Xeelee series was brilliant. Taking us from the dawn of time through to the end of the universe and around again. Fighting aliens from other dimensions and the creators of the universe themselves.

First, as this is my first post here: hi all!

Regarding the topic, in no particular order, they differ so much..

Arthur C. Clark "2001: A Space Odyssey" - a classic, the book with the best movie adaptation ever
Stanislaw Lem "The Invincible" - great book about life and evolution
Neal Stephenson "Snow Crash" - my favorite cyberpunk novel
Arkady and Boris Strugatsky "Roadside Picnic" - the best approach to the issues of extraterrestrial contact
