These are not classics, they are more modern - great reads all.
Sean McMullen- Souls in the Great Machine (greatwinter kills all technology, and a great idea about "the call" that compels people to blindly walk west if not tethered.
William C. Dietz- Legion of the Damned- like the French foreign legion in outer space, with cyborgs and aliens all in the same fighting force- great series
Kage Baker- starting with In the Garden of Iden- The Company can time travel and finds children to turn into cyborgs to go back in time to save endangered plants, art, etc. We meet a child (Mendoza) saved from the inquisition, turned into a botanist, who has a little glitch that keeps her from toeing the Company line. Fantastic series (about 12 books in all, better and better as they go).
Richard K. Morgan- Thirteen
Hope you find something you like.
