Re:Ask HN: What are the best Sci-Fi books you've ever read? by NeedMoreTea on Sunday July 15, 2018 @03:26PM (#17536610)
The Mote in God's Eye by Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle.

First read it as a teen in the 80s and still rate it as one of the best SF books ever written. Well paced and enormous fun.

The Player of Games by Iain M Banks.

Probably the most self-contained of the Culture series and the least heavy SF of them. Which makes it a great starting point.
