I really appreciate, in no particular order:

- Seveneves, Neal Stephenson
- Xenocide, Orson Scott Card (third book of Ender's Game, though I may confuse w/ second)
- Ringworld, Larry Niven
- Consider Phlebas, Iain M Banks (Surface Detail from that series is fantastic too)

<sub>_Am currently re-reading Red/Blue/Green Mars, Kim Stanley Robinson. Actually enjoying it more this time than the last._</sub>

Dune is the only one of those that I've read. I'll have to be on the lookout for that Heinlein book especially.

A couple I'd add:
-Stranger in a Strange Land
-The Light of Other Days
