Ender's game
You may have already ready these form Larry Niven, but Ringworld is great, part of Tales of Known Space. Inferno (kind of a modern day Dante's Inferno-really good)...also, The Man-Kzin Wars. Larry Niven/Jerry Pournelle great writing duo of you like Sci-Fi.
I wouldn't recommend starting with the World As Myth series (or The Number Of the Beast at all--that's just a hot mess), as there's some serious ickiness in those books, and you need a good foundation in Heinlein to overcome it. Personally, I didn't care for Stranger In a Strange Land, but I certainly wouldn't recommend against reading it.Might as well just say it: anything by Robert A. Heinlein is worth reading! My favorites--the ones I've read at least twice, if not more--are The Puppet Masters and Glory Road.
