Dune!! Dune!! Dune!! When reading CF it is normally technology that has advanced. In Dune it is people. IMHO Herbert is to CF what Tolkien to fantasy.
Hyperion, by Dan Simmons. Definitely the first book is awesome. The 2nd is not so good but closes the circle. The following two are disappointing.
A little hidden jewel: "Armor" by John Steakley. It definitely smacks of "Starship Troopers", but focused in two separate characters that live two separate stories. I love this dark desperate book. Steakley also wrote Vampire$, which is not that hot. The movie is pitiful.
