I'll also recommend Infinte Jest by David Foster Wallace.

Have it, still haven't read it, haha. And it's probably too big to travel with. I'm on planes a lot.
Get it on Kindle, it is worth it just for that. Makes the footnotes much more manageable. My favorite book and easily, now. It's a tough read the first time. The fourth reading was this summer and I enjoyed it more than ever.
Have you read any Neal Stephenson? Diamond Age and Anathem ought to be right up your alley and are very good. Cryptonomicon is great as is Snow Crash (though dated now). He's probably my favorite current author.
ETA - saw the recommendation for the Amber series and I'll second it. Lord of Light by Roger Zelazny is one I'll very highly recommend. Great book.

I read Reamde and I liked it but it wasn't great. Would you say it's one of his better books or not?
